Help with finding sbocks

Hey Guys and Gals,

I need help figuring out what shocks I need for the rear of my truck. It has a 4" shackle drop on it which shocks should I run?

Run stock style just fine food shocks will go as deep as your wallet or as deep as your checking. Monroe sensa track are a good mid way shock

you dont need shorter shocks unless you are low enough that you have removed the bump stop

I bought a hood from Coleman's military surplus of all places.

Real GM, only $79, but it had to be freight shipped for another $150, still well worth it. Came in a a nice crusty GM box from 1993.
