Shocks
I am looking to see what kinda shocks everybody is using. They need to be replaced and I will be doing a drop at the same time. 2 1/2" front spindles and 4" rear spring. I was interested to see what everybody was using. Also if anybody has a picture of their truck with a drop simular to this that would be great.

Re: Shocks
I got the shock kit from CPP that came with relocators for the rear for like $140. I ordered 3" drop shocks for the front and they are short. So short they limited my lift rang with the bags I installed. I returned them and got stock length for the front.
They aren't the greatest, but they are a lot better than what was on the truck when I bought it. |

Re: Shocks
Brad did you use the same shocks front and back? Also did you relocate the shocks in the rear with that drop? And do you have any pics? I want to see if the drop I want is going to be low enough.

Re: Shocks
Aight well what is the difference in height front to rear? I want to have a little bit of rake, but an insane amount.
