Default Rancho 9000xl shocks questions.

Hello, I have a 1995 Silverado on a 5/7 drop and I'm looking for adjustable shocks. I read these are very good but can't seem to find the correct ones for my truck. Would anyone know the part numbers for these shock for a lowered obs? Even a link.
Thanks

I found what part number I needed by going through their catalog and looking at the extended and compressred heights....I think mine are actually sized for a tacoma.

Easiest way to figure that out is to get out and measure....measure bolt hole to bolt hole at ride height and find a shock that has this length right in the middle of compressed and extended length.

So if you measure 15", you want something like 12" compressed and 18" extended.

take that measurement and call calvert racing. they own the rights to that shock now, and the rancho 9000x is gone. they can get the right shock with that measurement.
