What are you guys using for lowered shocks?
Im just wondering what you guys are running for lowered shocks on these trucks. I have an 1980 1/2t 2wd short box. Cut two spring coils out of the front and flipped the rear myself. Ghetto, I know but it has to do for now. Im running pretty close to bottoming the stock ones out by just bouncing on the truck, so roadworthyness is an issue. Thanks in advance!

Got mine from McGaughys. I'm going to put shock extenders on the back because I only have 1.5' travel right now.

Re: What are you guys using for lowered shocks?
oem type shocks (Monroe's, maybe), with shock extenders on the rear. With one coil cut, it didn't make enough difference to need new ones on the front. That, and replacements can be found cheap anywhere.

I have Belltech Nitro Drop 2 shocks for the "Bull" and I had them on the front of my old '87. Love them!!! And if you shop them, they are as cheap as any. I bought mine for $36 ea.

My experiance with Doetsch Tech shocks is they make a truck ride like a cement truck.

I run Belltech Nitro 2's on my 2 door Tahoe and so far I've been pleased with them.
It definitely rides nice. |
