C-10 gurrus, i have a shock question

[fabguy]

I have a 1958 fleetside with a 71 C-10 front grafted clip and it is on airbags. When I let the air out my crossmember is on the ground and I have approximately 10" from shock mount to shock mount. Extended it is about 16 1/2 " my question is what shocks do guys run for that amount of travel?
On day when money permits I want a porterbuilt front cross member but right now it aint gonna happen.

I think you are going to have to find a local auto parts store with a shock book or check online.
You should be able to find a shock in those specs.

Thanks,
I started checking and found some shocks for it, I did find the fronts and by chance they fit with 1-1/8" more travel left in the shock with A-Arms layed flat on the ground. approx 2" travel left with bags airred too 90lbs. (more than I will run in them)
Now my front lays frame (almost) while the front bumper is 5/8" from the ground.
