is there any way possible of using the stock shocks on a 3/4 drop I am a little broke at the moment and I cant afford new shocks but I want to get it dropped asap and if I can use the stock shocks until I save up enough $$ to get some new ones I am gonna drop it off at Total Performance a few days after I get the coil springs in the mail :D

also I have 2 shocks that came with the shackles and hangers would these work in the front with stock shocks out back because I was thinkin if the front shocks wouldnt work with the 3 inch coils the drop shocks might and just leave the stockers out back until I can afford some more :)


thanks in advance,
Jon

Not sure about 3" in the front...I would think 2" was the limit for the shocks, for the rear you would need the shock extenders or you will bottom the shocks out.

You really should use some new shocks up front....nomatter how cheap they are. The stock shocks will be totally useless up front. The rear ones will be ok for now with some shock extenders.

You can probably find some Monroe gas shocks for pretty cheap. I got a set on my front and I think they were 20-25 each.
