OME Shock Replacement

I have 143K showing on my odometer and I have towed the Jeep another 40K behind our motorhome. I just had a shop replace the OME struts in the front and can still feel a little sway in the back on corners. I had the shop do the work on the front because I am not equipped to tear all the front end down in the yard. The rear shocks should be a simple task, though. Where is the best, cheapest, place to buy the replacement OME's?

How many miles on the springs? May be time to replace them as well .
Rear shocks are easy to swap out , check jeepinbyal or AllJs for OME 132Ls
Or Bilstein also makes a good shock although the top bushing fits a little loose

Thanks Tom. I have ordered the shocks from Jeepin By Al. The springs appear to be OK. They still have plenty of lift and appear to be OK.

I have replaced the rear shocks with new OME's from Jeepin By Al. Man, what a difference. New struts and shocks have really made a difference in the handling and it handles bumps a whole lot better.

Thanks for the help, Tom.
