Shocks to replace recommendations on 66 Shortbed factory height?
Im putting the front end back together after a restoration and the shocks definitely need replacing. No fancy dropping or lowering has happened or is planned to be. What would you guys recommend for a standard height c10?

I put KYBs under my 65 C10. Work well. Probably should have kept the stock spirals I took off, lol

I have used the Belltechs for lowered and stock height. They are way better than the part store stuff that fits 200 different vehicles. They are tuned just for what they go on. I have them on the 66 and they have done really well.
