Bringing this great thread up with a question...

the 344068 shows it is the STOCK shock for a 67-72 truck...with NO drop...
How is that correct for someone running a 2 or 3" drop spring? Sure seems it reduces the travel...

and the 344055 isn't listed for the truck at all which might make sense because it would have shorter travel for the rear dropped???...stock shows 344085 for the rear...but that's for coil springs only...has no comparable spring listed for the rear with coils...maybe the 344055 is it then???
