Post by: 77chevyshortbox on August 31, 2011, 07:25:24 pm

putting a dana60 and 14bolt in my truck. ordering leafs and a crossover highsteer. was curious about shocks. not sure what to get? was looking at pro comps, i wanna get about 8-10 inches of lift, stuffing 40-44's on the truck. have everything else, just wasnt sure about shocks. thanks

     With the bigger axles and higher lift you will need heaver shocks for sure, Air charged or reservoir type shocks have always worked well for me in the past.  Fox racing makes excellent reservoir type shocks and rancho has a good air type shock.
