Lowering shocks
My 77 is dropped 3"/5" and I have air shocks on the back in case I need to carry a load. I'd like to find dropped shocks for the front. Picture is before drop and new rims.
Any suggestions?

If you are trying to figure out what will fit, you will need to measure between the upper and lower shock mounting points......both at full droop and full rebound......If you want to try and find something without doing that.......I'd suggest Googling and contacting DJM.......they have been lowering Dents for years.....They can probably come up with what you need

If lowered with DJM beams, then front "lowering shocks" are not required. Drop beams just move the spindle (axle) centerline up. The travel is still the same - generally between 2.0 and 2.5 inches.
Just opt for better front shocks like Bilstein HDs.
