[QUOTE="purpledog07, post: 637790, member: 22687"] If i had the money i would go for the bilsteins that sparkywig posted. Unless you are using a fancy heavy duty coilover, try this to get your sizes. Measure min and max stroke. ie: on the bump stops and opposite, so resting on the spring plate notches. Your shocks need to be able to compress shorter and extend longer than the min and max. This is to avoid bottoming out and breaking the bolts or mounts and overextension which can damage the shock internally or literally pull the rods out of the body. It happened to me on an old marina back in the day, didn't see the speed hump at 40mph! [/QUOTE]
