Shock choices?

I was just wondering what shock options there are while running LC80 coils in the rear on a 3rd Gen? What gives the best ride? I'm getting rid of the Daystar 2.5 and going with the LC80's. Thanks!

I would bet you could get some extended length Bilsteins.

I think Rancho shocks are made by Monroe. The only problem I've ever had has been blowing the bushings out of them. I went with them after I seized a set of KYBs. on my old truck. I was just wondering what my option were.

I have Ranchos and they seem great. I like the way they ride. They are built by Monroe but they have a lifetime warranty, not that they last that long though. As for bushings if you get the upgraded polyurethane ones for like $15 bucks they will last as long as you keep your truck.
