Default 4/7 drop, what rear shocks?

What shocks in the rear is everyone using for a 4/7 drop?? I found a kit for a good price, but it needs shocks.

DO NOT GET AIR SHOCKS. I hate them on my truck. They are WAY to soft.


I am looking into the Belltech Street Performance shocks. My friend has them on his truck and they ride great.

Another friend has the newest Mcgaughy shocks but they need extenders. But they do also right nice.
