Ill go first!

2000 ecsb 4WD right now front end is stock, soon to have 2" keys, and the back has blocks removed, soon to have 2" shackles. What would be the best shocks to use once Im lowered, while still being able to tow a car/truck and trailer? I have helper bags im planning on installing as well.

Nitro Drop 2s would be a good choice if you want something comfortable,forgiving and more OE feeling. Street Performance are a bit stiffer, since you will be towing not a bad choice. Just depends on personal preference.

I currently run Street Performance w/ my Airlift helper bag system. It is a good balance depending on the PSI I have in the helpers. I run mine a bit on the stiff side.
