Best lowered shocks

Hi, the drop spindles are installed in the front with 2 inch lower springs. The rear is lowered with 4 inch springs. Which shocks would work best?

Run a shock for a 85 s10 blazer 4x4 in the front. As for the rear I used one for a corvette I will have to check what year and wheter it is front or rear.

S10 shocks up front ?

Really?

I have done a similar set up, with the springs and spindles and was wondering the same thing. 4x4 1985 S10 shocks will bolt right into place?

I personally prefer Doetsch Tech or Bilsteins.
