Are Doetsch Tech Nitro Slammer Shocks any good?
I'm lowering my '98 F-150 3" in front and 5" out back, and was wondering if these shocks are any good. If not, what would you recommend?

Do you think it would be worth the extra $ to go with the Edelbrock IAS shocks? I'm going to be supercharging and adding nitrous so I need as much help getting off the line as possible.

I'm sorry but i never use those shocks before so i don't know how good they are.
What i do know is that bell tech is coming up with new shocks and i heard that they are the best.any ways let me know how it goes,i wish you were close by so i could help you lowered.so good lock with it.

Keyser Soze - I have the edlebrocks on my 4x4 and I like them. Not sure how they work in a lowered application like you are planning.
But I will say this, I bought them from CarParts wit the 1/3 off coupon, so the set of 4 came to $200, other then that I would not have spent $75 a piece on them, they are not worth that much, the $50 each I paid okay, but not $75.
