air shocks vs gas shocks and which brands are suggested?

Post by crombiex »

Hey People... I am lifting my Rocky with rear shackles and new front shocks and cranked torsion bar to achieve at least a 2in (cheap) lift. I am looking for shocks now and i'd like to buy air shocks to fit my Rocky, but i'm not really familiar with the different brands of shocks, and i would like some input on what air shocks would be suggested. Any suggestions on other shocks (not air) would be appreciated but i'm pretty sure air shocks is what i want so i can adjust them whenever i want:
So what i'm asking is, what brand shocks to get for a Rocky? and
air vs gas (or other) - what is best in your experiences?
I love Sarah :)

Off the shelf shocks to suit a Rocky may not be the best idea if you're doing a 2" lift. You'd be better off getting some custom made ones that are longer.
