Hi all. I ran a search but didn't find an answer I was looking for. I have drop spindles up front and pretty low(beam mounts about 1.5-2" off the ground). I remember back in the day we used barndoor shocks in the front. Anything newer and stiffer?? In the rear I used OldSpeed drop kit. I think in the rear I can run stock shock lengths. Anyone installed those kits with stock height shocks? Also, looking at recommendations for stiffer shocks. Any help is appreciated.

barndoor are the lowest but if you have spindles only they take regular length shocks... If you go koni they are adjustable...
