Here you go.

http://www.performancesuspension.com/trucklowering.htm

This is a frame of the site. To get to the main page just leave off the /trucklowering.htm. They have a 800 number you can call to order. These guys are a great place to buy lowering components from.

I got mine from Performance Suspension. One of these days I might actually install them.

Look at the bottom of the page.

EDIT: Damnit Swervin!

Re: shock extenders??

Do you know if they correct the shock angle ?

I have a 6" drop leaf only mine is 67. They use the same shocks. But right now they are laying really flat. I would like to correct that.

Re: shock extenders??

Yes, they are intended to correct the angle and drop the mounting point. Swervin actually has pics of some mounted on his truck, and can probably give you a better idea of how much they will help.
