Need shocks for '864kq

[Matt Daniels]

I took my 4000 on a spirited drive in the mountains the other day, and I
think I killed something in the front suspension. Hopefully it's just a
old shock that gave out. 

Basically, the next day I noticed a harsher than normal ride, and the
front end was extremely bouncy. Once I got to my destination, I noticed
that the front right of the car was very, very low. And upon pushing
down on the fender, there was almost no spring back. Coming out of the
store 20 minute later and it looked like the car had raised up a bit and
the ride wasn't as bad as before. 

So I'm thinking I need new shocks, which probably isn't a bad idea
anyway. Any recommendations on brand? I just need some simple
replacement shocks to get me buy, nothing fancy. Blau has a set of 4 KYB
GR-2 shocks for $209 - are these decent? Can I get others for cheaper?
What else to I need to purchase when replacing the shocks? And how
involved is replacing the shocks myself? 

Thanks,

Matt Daniels
