Shocks

Currently I have stock A-Arms with a static 3.5"(2.5" spindle, 1" spring)/5" drop while using CPP's rear shock relocation brackets. With that drop and their shocks all the way around, my ride is stiff as hell and jiggles my fat!!! I am going to be installing CPP's tubular control arms very soon.

I am curious to know what everyone is using for shocks with the drop I have. Before I lowered it, my truck rode like a Cadillac with crappy autozone shocks! When I look at my rear shocks at least, it looks like the wear on the shaft is only about an inch in depth.

Is this even shock problem?

I know I don't have a wood bed kit or a tail gate installed on the truck yet, but you would think that would make it bouncier, but man I feel EVERY bump EVERY pebble.

Thanks for the help

Mike
