Default Which shocks when lowering?

I am going to drop my box, probably Tein S-Tech's. I would like to change the rear shocks (maybe the fronts too?). I am looking for a nice smooth ride - I know the Monroe's are a popular choice, which part number do I need for a lowered box or is there a better spring out there?

Agreed.

If you go with Eibach Pro line(not so sure about the Sportline) , you can still use/retain your stock struts... and they will work fine/decent.

For the money.. I'd say forget Monroe... and at LEAST go Tokico HP's. Just my .02

If you go S.Tech, and want Monroe it's the 5987s that you want.
