On an I-beam truck, cut coils (stock or lowering springs) to drop 3+ inches, use front shocks from a 2wd 1995 dodge Dakota. Remove the bar pins and run the bushing directly on the lower shock mount stud. As for the rear, the toxic shocks in my '94 are going on 10 years and still working well.

On my 1992 with flipped shackles and spring under with cut coils I run Nissan Hardbody shocks.

I guess I could mention the rear of my truck had a 4" belltech hanger drop with longer shackles. So I'm at about a 4/6 with worn out belltech springs with one coil cut off the top. My truck is NOT alignable at this point. Dream beams and new springs in the near future.
