KYB shocks- Gas-a-just vs GR2?

Getting ready to order shocks, opinions on Gas-a-just vs GR2?

Truck is my 63 long fleet, lowering with cut coils front and block rear. I have heavy wheels & tires, and tow a light trailer ~ 1000 lbs.

I had gas-a-just on my old 71 and loved them, but many here recommend the GR2 when lowered.

I plan on air bags inside my rear coils to help when towing, and adding a front anti sway bar fwiw.

GR-2's have a better ride quality. Gas A Justs have a firmer ride quality (too firm IMO).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Are these the correct part numbers for stock to 3" lower?
Front 344068
Rear 344085

Thanks
