Re: Rear shocks?
How is your rearend lowered? Lowering blocks, shorter springs, etc? I set up my buddy's '66 (shorter springs and 1-inch blocks) with a set of OE-type Monroe oil-filled shocks that are normally for the front (since they are a little shorter).

Re: Rear shocks?
I lowered my truck 5" in the rear and used the KYB gas shocks from ECE along with the relocator brackets. Sorry I don't have a photo of the shocks only the truck. It rides super nice.

Re: Rear shocks?
Where do the relocator brackets mount to? Got a c-notch on the back, with 5 inch drop coils.

Re: Rear shocks?
I'm using a 4" spring with this shock relocator kit.
I've got the shocks all i know is they are KYB. I can try to find a part number if needed. I'm also running a Super track bar.
