I had those on my 87, heres the link to summit for the rears http://www.summitracing.com/search/D...n/?Ns=Rank|Asc . I am going to go with the Toxic drop shocks from Summit or stylintrucks.

thank you liveanimals. i picked them up at tognotti's yesterday. i have to install the shocks before i bolt down my u bolts because the spring plate was in the way. oh well, 1 less thing i have to buy.

No problem man, how much at tog's.

[menace121978]

too much buddy. ($46.99) but i did get signed up for a v.i.p. card that means if i bring in a in basket quote from any online store they will match it and beat it by 5%. i also did something i dont usually do and bought what the call there lifetime warranty ($10)for no questions asked free replacement. figured i should do it since the truck wont be driven for another year probably. we'll see how that goes.

I have a set of toxic shock numbers I could give you if you want to go that way. I have had the set for a few years.

Sweet bro, I am definetly going to sign up for v.i.p. Good deal on the warranty too, is it through Tognotti's?

aren't the Street Performance belltech shocks better than the nitro 2s? ive heard they are the best and that toxic isnt a very good shock? any ideas?

yes go in and talk to jeremy. you bring in the old shock w/ reciept and he hands you another. he said you dont want to deal w/ belltech on warranty stuff. they'll take the shock and tear it a part to see if it really/why failed. pain in the rear... when you go in for the card you have to show and prove that your a member of a car club. i showed him my "nor-cal goats" card and that was enough. give me a call, Dennis

im not sure, i thought the nitro2 was the best ride from what ive read on here. and i can tell you one thing for sure, my frame is on jackstands and the rear is on top of the leafs. the leafs are at there maximum travel downward and the shocks bolted up perfect in full extention and lined up perfect. so the travel is diffently right on.

thats sick. what drop do you have? a static drop? and what i meant was that the descriptions they give of the shocks on belltech are that the nitro 2 is just a replacement shock that its entry level stuff and the Street Performance is the upgraded version of it. Im curious because im pulling some money together to get one of thier a 2/4 drop kits with the Street performance shocks. part number 703sp and didnt know if i was paying more for no reason because the shocks wouldnt be that much of a difference between the nitros.

so far i have a 4/6 static drop...w/ all new eyelet bushings and everything. i was worried that the new poly bushings and everything would make her ride too rough w/ the performance shocks. still have about a year before i'll know for sure!
