Need some rear leaf shocks for 4" drop. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just dropped my truck and I need some shocks for the rear.
The KYB rep said they don't have any for a 4" drop and I can attest that the Gas-A-Just is definitely not a good holdover (it is like a solid rear at the moment, NO bounce).

So, can anyone give me a recommendation on a rear shock for a 4" drop on a leaf spring truck? (I used ECE drop leafs).

They can be the cheap parts store shocks for all I care, just need some give back there. Right now when I hit a bump - the whole truck comes up.
