shock ??s

anyone have any recommendations for rear shocks for my 79 Blazer? since I lowered it the stock shocks are too long and are bottoming out. I have used front shocks on the rear before when running a flip kit, but the are too short to use on this one. I installed a 2" shackle and removed the short "overload" spring and factory 1/2" lift block. Surely there is an off the shelf shock that will work for this application, but i have yet to locate one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: shock ??s

cool truck. I would just get under the truck and measure from eye to eye and then go to the monroe website and look in there shock application guide, or go to your local parts store with measurements and look in their book. Good luck.
