Default 4/6 drop and shocks??????

I was just wondering what shocks everyone are using for a 4/6 drop? I was looking at Edelbrock IAS shocks. but I cant find any for a 4/6 drop.

Edelbrock quit making shocks for lowered applications. I'm running Doestch Tech shocks on my 4/6. The part #'s are 4080G for the front and 4241G & 4163G for the rear.

It rides really good. The only harshness in the ride is because of the rubber band tires.

"Toxic Shocks: TOO HARSH, POOR WORKMANSHIP, LACK OF DESIGN AND
DURABILITY (Cheap $29 shocks for those who just don't care or don't know any better. Includes stupid looking "skull and crossbones" decal."



thats what one website says (sport truck direct)
