Alright now i'm done with the motor i need some good shocks for everyday driving and something for the track.

Stock ride height with the overload removed. I may get a set of drop shackles but not 100% sure yet but thats as far low as its getting.

Im leaning towards the Rancho9000 ones just because they are adjustable for both the street and the track. But they do cost about double the price of the others though.

My real question is how do you adjust them? i have head of some you have to take off the truck to adjust and some you can adjust on the vehicle.

Also any one here using them. I think i know hemidup uses them (which kinda make them good for the track with the times he's running)

Anyone else use them or anyother good shocks.

i use rancho 9000s on the rear....there is an adjustment knob right on the shock body to adjust them on the truck.

I'd go rancho 9000 shocks. The fronts have a dial too, but you would just have to get your finger between the coils on the spring to adjust. I thought about going with the ranchos too, but I'd have to measure since I'm lowered 2/4.5.

I'm runnin the adjustable rancho 9000's all the way around.
I've heard of an "in-cab" on the fly adjuster for them, but never seen it.
