Message:
I am about do for some new shocks. I was wondering waht to best one would be. Right now I am at stock height and soon I am going to go with a 2" rear drop and 1" in the front or a 3/2 drop not sure which I want to do yet. I don't want to go 2 low. but I am thinking about the 3/2 drop and what would be a good shock? Thanks

Josh

More to do with whether you go off road
or what kind of ride you are looking for !
Also if going to tow trailer or something
where you might want air adjustable shocks ??

I am not going to do to much offroad type stuff. I will tow a boat maybe but not too much. And I think I am going to lower it 3" in the back and 2" in the front.

I recommend you check out the Hotchkis modified bilstine shocks if you are serious about lowering.

Use dropped shocks on the front. But use extensions on the rear for stock size shocks. I've run Monroes for years. This year I switched to KNGs. My truck handles better and the sway is less. I recommend them. http://www.performancesuspension.com/ should makes extensions for rear shocks.

Try calling Summit Racing and getting a catalog they are doing more with trucks these days. I just bought a set of SkyJackers for my 87 4x4 about 37 bucks a piece.
