ok im gonna be lowering my truck in a week. i have choosen eibach 1.5 inch drop coils for the front and and shackel and hanger kit for the rear for a 4 inch drop. so for better handeling i was also thinking about doing shocks at the same time what would the stiffest shocks be? i want the stiffest because there is gonna be very little room between my tires and the fender lip.

So let me hear what you guys have to say.
thanks

Doetsch tech, Bilstein, Edelbrock, any of these 3 shocks are stiff but still give you a nice ride.

:word: You might also look into some Belltech Nitro Actives. I've heard they're pretty stiff too, but Doetsh techs seem to be the less costly but just as effective shock.

If you're only going to have a 1.5/4 drop, you'll still have plenty of room between the tires and fenders.

I have to say Bilsteins. I had the Belltech on my Silvy, and IMO they rode like $H!T way to stiff and choppy. Just my opinion though!:D
