Shocks for 4" Drop Leaf Springs
What shocks do you guys suggest I use for my 71 long bed when I install my 4" drop mono leafs and the 1" lowering shackles? Are they different than coil spring shocks? After searching endlessly, I cant find shock re-locators for leafs. Is that going to be an issue?
I am using 3" lowering springs in the front. What about shocks on that end? I live in the mountains of north GA with a bunch of great curvy roads. I am installing front and rear swaybars. Just want it to handle good for me. Thanks in advance for your suggestions! Jeff

Re: Shocks for 4" Drop Leaf Springs
Some guys have rotated the upper shock mounts from side to side but I just drilled out the rear hole and mounted a new stud to get the shock in a more upright position.
