I need to replace the shocks first, but it's got a 4 inch (block) suspension lift on it. Current shocks are rancho 5001-9 and are marked c2751.
My question is what size and what shocks would you all recommend? This will be a daily driver\ camping and hunting..... so I'm not planning on switching out the axles or going crazy offroading just yet.
Out of curiousity, why are you "just" replacing the shocks? Is it riding rough? Are you planning any other upgrades to the suspension in the future?
