Which Shocks for 3.5" Lift
So Looks like I am going to order an RE 3.5" Super Ride with
full Rear Spring Pack.
What Shocks to get ?
I need them to be inexpensive but not Junk, hoping to spend less than $150 for a set.
I want them nice on the Road, RC seems to be a good price but I have heard they ride rough.
Are there any Standard Shocks that will fit, something that say Kragen or Napa might carry ?

Spend the extra money on some Bilsteins or RE monos. I have the RC 8000's that came with my lift kit and trust me, RC's are okay for the money you spend, but looking back I wish I would've just upgraded and grabbed a pair of either of the two I just mentioned.

I originally planned on getting an RC 3" Lift with AAL, So I am way over budget going with the RE Lift

I hear the RE Superflex makes for a great ride. If you really don't want to break the bank, then just shoot for the RC9000's or even the 8000's. There's not much difference. At least their better than the stock shocks; mine anyways.

where are you ordering the RE kit from? most places you order it from include shocks and it gives you at least like 3 choices, but i've heard the RE ones are decent. if you have the money, go with OME or bilstein, i have been very pleased with my OME shocks.
