And I strongly back the concept of a second or third opinion,
keeping in mind - If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Thanks for the cool link.

I ended up getting Volvo Nivomat shocks for the rear suspension. They were a little spendy at 193.44 each. They feel really good and ride a little stiff which I like because I can feel the road. I haven't tested them with a heavy load yet. I just moved a few months ago so I may not get to for a while. After I get some new front strut mounts my suspension will be solid. With the new front shocks, I can cringe less when going over bumps but the rebound knocking with my current strut mounts makes me uneasy.

Thank to, everybody for the responses.
