Help with air shock for 8" rear drop. I need advice as soon as possible

[Mr. Trick]

Ok I have a 02 sierra rcsb it currently has a 6" rear drop but I'll be dropping it to 8" real soon. I've read about people using air shocks for dodge caravans chevy ventures and nissan frontiers. Which do I need to go with? My truck does not have shock extenders and I need air shocks cause I also put my 4 wheeler in the bed when I go out to ride and that's the only load it really sees. Thanks in advance

i ran the ones for my truck for a while when i was at 4 out back and had no issues im on regular drop shocks now but ill be going down to 8 either this weekend or early next week im going to try the air shocks i have since they have a lifetime warranty i just got them replaced. my cousin used these same ones when he was at 6 and also had no issues. they do have alot more travel than regular shocks so i doubt there will be any major issues. the shorter ones ive seen used are for 80s c10s and nissan hardbodys

You guys referring to the monroe sensatracs?

37072 front and 37078 rear if you need part numbers.

 

[Mr. Trick]

I know about the sensatracs but I need shocks to handle a load. Thank for the part numbers though because I will be replacing the front shocks next

I have the sensa, they suck imo. Too soft, being a CC, maybe that's why. I blew one of my fronts out, broke the t-bar where it mounts to the LCA, that's why I bought coilovers.

The Monroe's suck I use Gabriel high jackers

get a good pair of drop shocks and some helper bags instead of the air shock setup.

 

[Mr. Trick]

Yes I plan on that in the future maybe winter or next spring. I just need a budget solution for now.

I have the Monroe's the everyone is running for a 6-7 drop out back now that I went an inch lower they bottom out like crazy. What's the monroe part number for the nissans?

How does doing something twice become budget friendly? Do it right do it once, get a set of Firestone ride rights if they make them for your application.
