Default Shocks

So, I have a 2011 XLT with a 3/5 drop and I want to drop the front that one more inch. I was suggested drop shocks and so I'm going for it. Only problem is that I don't know exactly what kind of shocks I have to get for that one inch drop for the front. Anyone knows what kind? I heard Belltech is really good. Also, what size do I have to get? Thanks for the help!

Default Re: Shocks

Don't buy the Belltech Nitro Drop II. They ride great on a lazer smooth surface but, are too soft, do not respond quick enough and you will be hitting the stops....
If you can find the original Nitro Drops, they are really great. They also make a more expensive shock that is grey in color that I have heard good things about.
I ended up going with KYB Gas A Just shocks and am happy.
