No, either non-adjustable, single or triple-adjustable

750# was way too soft for me. i went to an 8" 1200# and i like how much better the truck sits but due to snow havent put a single mile on them yet.

like i said i havent been able to drive it yet. ridetech told me i cant use an 8" spring on the larger shock i run because i cant preload them but i dont need to preload my shocks with a 4500# truck.

Would it be better to use their 5.2 stroke shock due to the range of the compression/extension?

Coil-Overs :: Coilover Shock - 5.2" Stroke - HQ Series - RideTech.com - Suspension Specialist - Online Store

Also, do the strongarms have any drop in them?

Thanks.
