Shocks???

Ok so I finished the 3/4 drop the other day and so far I am happy. However I bought the kit in two stages so I did not get the Belltech shocks in the kit. Needless to say I need new shocks because the rear bottoms out when you run over an ant. What shocks are reccomended. Any specific model, length, anything. The more information the better.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think shocks will prevent you from bottoming out. It'll just slow down the inevitable.

You can also keep the original bilstein 300 psi shocks on 01 and newer L by contacting Aaron Hanson at So-Cal speed shop. They have shock extender kits for the L that give you back the lost travel on your shocks. I have't seen any aftermarket shocks with more than about 190 psi. I had the Doestch Techs until I found the extender kit, and put the Bilsteins back on!!
