shocks for lift

alrighty, I've got a 94 Exploder that I'm going to install a 6in skyjacker lift on this summer. I'm wondering what the general opinion is on the best shocks for lifted trucks as this is my first. It'll be a 60 regular/40 off-road driver when done. I'm not too concerned with ride quality, but don't want it to ride like a horse wagon either. Thanks for any input.

You'll get as many opinions as there are people on this forum but if you're not too concerned about ride quality and want to do if for relatively cheap I'd get the Rancho 5000 series. I'm going 9000's but you probably won't need the ride adjustment.

yeah, I've looked at the rancho's.. I know they have a good name, but don't know anyone who's run em before. I currently have pro-comp 9000's, but blew the rears out towing a J**P. They didn't even make it 2 yrs, so that kinda bummed me on them. Alrighty, I'll go look at 4wheelparts.com and check pricing, thanks.
