Shock Therapy..........
Hey guys,
as most of you know, I lowered my truck with spindles and yanking the block outta the spring pack. Now I need shocks, specifically looking at the rear measuring 26" extended, 20" at rest and I'm gonna conjecture 17 or so inches compressed. with that information and my limited understanding of geometry, would these shocks work......... TIA

If all you did was remove the 4WD lift blocks in the rear, just go with a set of 2WD shocks for your year truck then. Your rear ride height is now what a stock 2WD would be.

I thought the same thing and to be sure I bummed a couple shocks off a buddy's 2wd. A lot of rattling and bumping ove4r moderate bumps and even highway expansion joints, even with the relocators- took them off and running around with nothing and smooth and quiet, except for the excessive bouncing, which is what led me to that Tahoe shock thinking a reasonable cost solution. Wanted to check in with everyone that's been here B4 calling up Bell Tech.......... TIA
