Best price I've found is kolak on JF. I'd look into bilstein HDs or Monroe sensatraks or reflexes- I've seen a couple guys run those and have decent results

This just got more confusing. I've heard mixed things about the monroe front struts. I need soemthing to firm up the ride and work a little better with the lift.....if possible.

Bilstein and OME struts will be more firm than Monroe; Monroe Reflex is an excellent shock/strut, used to install a lot of them at the shop. They'll firm up the ride over stock, but they're softer than others because they're targeted as a DD upgrade, not an offroad performance shock.
OME is great but ideal with the OME coils. The bilsteins are a popular and less expensive upgrade for struts. You'll hear a lot of great things about them. Id go that route if I were you or check out the Monroe's if you plan on daily driving it a hell of a lot more than wheeling it.

Oh they were garbage. I was running them with the BDS spacer lift and both struts blew out leaking oil everywhere in less than 6 months time. I off road a lot more now with my OME then I did with the Bilsteins and the OME shocks havent blown yet and they have been installed for 18 months. Its funny though because I installed rear Bilstien 5150's at the same time and they also were shot after several months. OME 1 - Bilstein 0

I have the Bilstein HD struts also and wouldn't recommend them for serious off-road with the Hemi. Mine are shot also.
