Shocks for 1" 3" crown suspension drop

[M27]

Ordered 1"3" crown suspension coils wanna know if I can use the stock shocks or do I need new ones and which will be best for this drop. Thanks in advance

You should be able to use factory, some 3" rear drops allow you to retain factory shocks.

Like to see how the 1" up front changes yours...I did the GF leveling, and it dropped rear 2.5" to 3"...like to drop front 1"...

can you measure before and after, ground to front lip?

 

[Graygoose]

any updates?

Installed

Thanks for the reply I kept the factory shocks

Ground to front lip was 15" after 14 1/2" I'll measure again in about a week and see if any changes.

Truck looks good. How does the ride feel with the new springs? Curious how the front end handles and if it settles any more.

Hey Goose did you use the Ground Force shocks with yours? Sorry for thread jacking.

Yes sir, still have all my factory shocks/springs up in a box.

Good to know I am going to attempt putting in the 2wd GF kit on my 4X4.

36" off the top of my head. I wrote the measurements down but they are in my truck and it's at the body shop right now.

Ride feels stiffer and it handles a little better too.

It's a simple install for sure.
