Got Shocks........?
I just did a 5/7 Drop 3" spindles and 2" drop springs in front
Flip Kit and hangers in back all DJM parts..........The shocks are bottoming out I know I need to change them out any suggestions on a brand that would go good with that much of a drop ? Also how do I go about ordering them? Do all they need to is how much I dropped it ? Thanks, Martin |

For the rear get shock extenders. They allow you to use stock shocks, much easier to replace. I love mine from western chassie. Up front I used toxic shocks, they are very nice also

Doetsch Tech's are the best for the money.

My DJM 5" Flip Kit included the shock extenders, didn't yours? With the shock extenters you can buy the Edelbrock IAS Performer shocks @ $69.95 each.
