have spindles, need shocks, how big?
hey yall, gonna finally order some new shocks, just curious what size? i have the 3.5 spindles and 2 in rear blocks. i figure i need 2in longer ones for the rear, but what about the front? cant seem to find any for a 3in front lift?!?!? im sure the fabtech shocks would be the logical answer, but im sure they're more than what im wanting to spend. anyway, any help will be greatly appreciated.

spindles don't change the ride hight of the lower control arm stock length will be the right size for you.
