Measure distance from top to bottom shock perch and get Bilstien shocks to fit or what ever, they have many sizes. Maybe like 4 or 5 inches longer. with a 8 inch compression range. That way you have the right fit and up/down travel.

You can get sets of Skyjacker and others off eBay. I have a 2.5 lift, with quad front shocks, so 6 total, and found them there
