Mueller is correct on these shocks being Monroe, me thinks.

On my drives on my "new" axle, these shocks are behaving exactly like Bilsteins in my opinion, virtually invisible. While I thought the American non-gas Monroes on the car were doing their job, I now feel they were there just to hold up the ends of the axle to the frame...

I don't where to source these items, but they might be a cheaper alternative to Bilsteins, but I don't know how much theey are because they came with the axle from the 'Ol PNP.

If they are just $10 or $20 cheaper, I don't think I would go for them, just cuz.
