Shocks.....

I ordered a 4-6 static drop this week and it should be in next week! I still haven't ordered shocks yet. What do you all recommend? I wasn't sure on the front whether to get shocks for the 4.5 inch drop (2.5 inch spindle and 2 inch springs) or the 2 inch drop (springs). Does the 2.5 spindle drop affect the shock length??? I am sure that I will need shocks for the 6 inch drop in the rear (flip kit and c-notch). The parts ordered are all McGaughey's from Les at GMC Paul's. By the way great guy to deal with so far! Let me know what you all would do from here and where is the best place to order them from? Thanks!!

Re: Shocks.....

Spindles do not effect shock length, go with the 2" drop shocks!
