Looking for some shocks and coils

[Gtrain]

I am new to car parts and need some help. Can someone guide me to a set of shocks for the front and back to improve ride comfort to soften the ride since I don't take it anywhere besides the pavement? Thanks.

I kinda looking towards the KYB's but don't know if i should go for the Gas-A-Just or the GR2. I don't know which one is better for ride comfort and also if any one knows where the cheapest place to get them is. THANKS A MILLION.

Have to say that I am unfarmiliar with KYB shocks, as I have never owned a set. However, last year I purchased Monroe Sensor-matic shocks. These are good, gas shocks with some dual valving. They are pretty smooth on the road, but have the ability to stiffien up off road when the terrain demands it. I have been pleased. The original equipment was still on the 4R when I bought it and had about 150,000 miles on them. They were still 'working',, but felt kinda slushy.

THanks,
Mike

As an added note,, Monroe Auto Equipemnt Company makes most of the shocks sold in North America -- under various trade names.

From all of the reading I have done including my experience when it comes to Toyota I recommend Tokico (low priced from Toyota & aftermarket) which are OEM for on road use and Bilstein (expensive both from Toyota & aftermarket) which are OEM on many new Toyota trucks and are awesome off-road performers what ever you do avoid Munroes as they rust like the plague.
