When I dropped my first truck I had no issues in the rear using 4" drop springs, stock shocks in factory locations. When you go beyond 4"of drop or use shock relocators is when problems can occur. Up front you can get as much 2-1/2" of static drop with drop spindles without ever changing the shock or it's stroke. A drop spring or air bag will change the shock stroke and in my case, using a 2" drop spring with a stock shock resulted in a busted shock end. The front bump stops will not stop a shock from bottoming or a coil spring from binding. So if drop springs or air bags are used up front, a shorter shock is required. I did like the previous post and went through a Monroe Shock catalog and just ordered a 2" shorter shock. No issues since front or rear...The truck in my avatar is not my lowered truck.
