What kind of shocks are people using?

I just have stock size Ranchos. Haven't bottomed or topped them out, but haven't done any real offroading since I put them on...stuck at school and winter sucks.

That would only be for a truck with TT or stock because they are really SOFT!! I hate them on my street EX because they arn't stiff enough...Anyone want to trade?
 






go to www.swayaway.com and look at the race runner coilovers. if i put on a 4 inch lift i intheory can fit the smallest ones on there right?

I have a 94 XLT with everything stock at this point..

I was looking into some shocks myself, but also could use some direction

I plan on just putting on a 3inch body lift probably in the summer..and will be using the truck for mostly street use..daily driving...but would like to be able to do the occasional light wheeling.

can anyone reccomend something?

thanks..
 






i run the pro comp monotubes mx6,s. 6 way adjustables,i removed my front sway bar and these shocks act as if it was still connected,but wait? pro comp hasn,t come out with the explorer ones yet? or least a year ago when i ordered them.there great when your wheeling you can flex all you can then when on the street turn them to firm,no there not so stiff you vibrate out of your clothes! (a little hint) toyotas have the same mounting for the 91-94 ex,s just trade rear lower bushings. good luck all a tip from tdavis................
