Louisiana,
First of all your Truck really looks great, I'm partial to your stock theme. On your question about shocks I had Duetsch brand on the rear of my truck with shock extenders but because I lowered the rear by a flip kit plus lowered rear springs the rear was lower than the front. The truck was almost level with just a hint of lower in the rear.
Front was lowered 5in. So the Duetsch shocks were replaced with Gabriel air shocks so I can raise the rear a little for a rake.
Good Luck with your truck.
Bruce
