Hello fellas!

I just bought lowering spindles and shackles. I also bought torsion keys, but will probably end up selling them.

Any who, I was wondering what you guys recommend for a slightly lowered truck. Do the spindles maintain stock shock mounting locations? My truck is a 2000 RCSB 4X4 with 20" wheels. Since I'm only going down 2 inches, I figured I could use stock length shocks. Or do I need lowering shocks?

Also, where would I buy axle shims in case I need them?


Thanks for any advice.

I've tried several shock combos, and IMO the KYB MonoMax work the best. Use part numbers for the AWD SSS trucks. They are just a little shorter than the regular 4x4 shocks and will work great for you.

Thanks so much. I know in camaro land kyb shocks are a no no. I've always had good luck with bilstiens. I was reading the bilstien hd thread and think they would be way too stiff for my application.

I'll look into the kyb monomax shocks.

Oh, what year SS truck do I look for? Are the mounts the same as my truck for sure?

Thanks!

2003 AWD SSS shocks will bolt right in. All the mounts are the same.
