Default what shocks for 4" rear drop.

I already have a 2 inch drop on rear and I am going for another 2" for a total of 4'. What shock would give me a near stock ride?

you could get some edelbrock IAS's you can get them off of summit, they have ones that are all ready for a 4 in drop. i got shocks that were ready for drops: 2 in. in front and 4 in. in back.

I did the shackle/hanger drop also and I have doetsch tech drop shocks and really like 'em. Now, I also had to put on the airlift slamair helper bag kit on to hold the weight I carry in the back for work, but the shocks still keep the up and down under control. Edelbrock are great to, but pricey from what I've seen.
