Ok, been riding on these Belltech shocks for 2 weeks now and they're fantastic. Ordered them off amazon, cost for the rear was $96 bucks.

I've read through everything and see a lot of info. I've seen a couple people post about 4" drop in the back and running stick height shocks with hangers and stock shocks in front with 2"spindle drop. Would I benefit running any other shocks with that drop? 2" spindle up front and hangers and shackles in the rear 4"

Got my kit off djm and their rear shocks are staggered. Does it matter? Im 5/8 currently on all stock shocks and need rears, are extenders needed?

Just a heads up. If you buy a set of used and worn out bilsteins for cheap they can rebuild them and even shorten them....I haven't used them in awhile but they used to be super good to work with
I've had shocks shortened revalved rebuilt and custom valved by Bilstein

SO I just watched a YouTube video from AndysAutoSport they are saying to use drop shocks and shock extenders for the rear? I bought KYB gas a justs, but now I am thinking about getting drop shocks... The guy in the video mentioned that the extenders with the drop shocks will give a better ride because you are also changing the shock angle installing the extender. It makes sense, and I have the extender on the way. Should I get the drop shocks? I am looking for a smooth ride.
