Doetsch Tech are some of the best for lowered trucks. I think Edelbrock makes one for lowered trucks as well.

Whats wrong with the Belltech Nitro-Active shocks they sell?
Or I've heard that the KYB's are a great shock for lowered trucks.

i run the beltech;s nitros and i like them , there isnt a huge rebound when you hit bumps its nice n tight, id like it a little more firm but they are a nice improvement from stock!
