honest opinion....if your running stock shocks now, anything that is long enough for 4 inches of lift would be a vast improvement.

wow! i bet your shocks bottom out when you hit a pothole! ripped out your bar pins off road yet? because if you have then any correct length shock is worth it
 
I havent ripped anything of yet. I do feel them pop when I take of from a stop. I was going to add spacers to the coils but i figured I'd better get longer shocks first. The ride is kinda rough, although I dont know how much of that has to do with my rear leafs being almost completly flat.

If your leafs are flat then you must be using blocks amd you need new springs. And yes flat springs don't give much.
 
I plan on building a pack soon.
