Doing 5/7-6/8 drop what DT shocks?

flip kit, shackles and 1" block will give you 9" of drop. As for shocks you can buy my rears

not really lookin for 9" just maybe 8" lol. is this achievable with just the flip and shackles? Im gonna stick with the 29.00 summits, just need the size. thanks for the kinda useful info though!

Ya you can do 8 inch drop with flip kit and shackles. For shocks you'll have to measure your shock mounts from eye to eye.

I might just go off of your part numbers because I want to have everything at once. If im going to be at the same height drop wise I think ill be safe. Did they travel ok and were just too stiff or were they an incorrect size? What did you use up front?

They were too stiff for my liking :imo

I have helper bags so i dont need a stiff shock since i dont have a problem bottoming out. If you plan to do an 8" drop i'd deffinatly consider helper bags.

My truck is 4x4 so the shocks I have up front are different. I am running monroe sensatracs all the way around now.

I have some summit shocks that were on my truck with an 8" drop that I'll sell for $30 plus shipping for the rears.

Honestly, if you have the cash I would get a set of resi shocks. You can get fox's for about $200 a shock. PM me if you're interested in either set.

If I stay this low static I will definitely be investing in resi shocks, as for now I believe the summits will cut it.

5"-6" drop up front, does anybody have an idea what the part numbers for summit/doestch shocks are?

You will be throwing money away if you buy the summit shocks. I promise, learn from my mistakes.

I read your posts in the summit shock thread and saw that you disliked them along with spanky. I dont mind a more stiff ride and have heard plenty of good things about them as well. I appreciate your opinion, just dont have the money to spend $200.00 a shock, so its these or stock . Non of NORCALSS's summit links work anymore would you happen to know the answer to my question above?

go with monroes, ive had mant super low static trucks and thats the shock i prefure.
