I might have gone with Boges but I replaced mine
with KYB first.
In 5 years the front KYB GR2's were out of gas.
I replaced with Bilstein and they do perform
better , especially on rough roads.

But nothing is perfect. Within a few months the
oil leaked out of the left  front. Though I had
to pay shipping, and wait a month, Shox.com
replaced the defective shock. I had to ship the
defective one back to them first .

Now with about 4 years on these heavy duty
Bilsteins. Vanagon springs are probably the
reason Vanagons haren't a cushy ride.
