Shock help!

Ok so I have a 85 and I have a 6 in suspension lift in it. And a 3 inch body lift(soon to be taken off). And Chevy 63s in the rear. It has some tough country shocks. The thing has close to no flex. I'm looking to get maximum flex out of this thing. I've been looking at shock hoops and bilstein 14" 5125 shocks. Are these shocks to big for the 6 inch lift I have on it right now? I would like some input on what way I should go. Thanks

Are the shocks the limiting factor of the suspension? In other word, if you try to flex it out, do the shocks ever hit their maximum or minimum length? If not, then the shocks are not your problem.

Cool

Yes I believe they are reaching their maximum flex.
