Shocks

So I have just started a rebuild on a 70 C10 and I have installed air bags on front and rear and removed the old shocks from the truck. They were the original ones and just completely rusted up. Now that I have the bags in I am looking for new shocks for front and rear. Any ideas of some good ones to get to put my truck. Thanks!

Re: Shocks

Welcome to the board from over the west side! I'm. It sure if you have to get a different kind of shock due to the bags, but on my half tons I always run monroes or Gabriel's. My 3/4ton has rancho 9000's on the back and monroes up front. Good luck!

Re: Shocks

Check CPP for what they recommend that won't bottom out and rip your mounts off.

Re: Shocks

BELL TECH 63-72 Chevy/GMC C10 Street Performance Rear Shocks 2" - 6" Drop. 63-72 Chevy/GMC C10 Street Performance Front Shocks 1" - 5" Drop. These are the shocks i was using on my truck but i kept having leak down issues with the air ride so i'm still going to use them with my 3/5 drop kit
