shocks
Looking for an all around not expensive shock. Had seen earlier recommendations for Monroe Gas Shocks. They are about $56 for two at Kragen. I have a little problem with the rear end sagging a little(see photos) Is there a better shock choice or another remedy for dragging the back end? Thanks. FC

If your suspension is sagging, shocks aren't going to help out that much. Might want to throw a helper spring in there or put some blocks under the leafs.

air shocks
I posted awhile back asking about shocks. I finally had some time today and crawled under my 65 f100 and what I have are really old air shocks in the rear. I tried to pump them up and got just a little lift and it seemed I had the compressor going for a while. Since I can't read the psi recommended, is there a middle of the road psi I should try for? Or should I assume these are shot because they don't seem to be inflating. thanks for the help, the beast is running great besides this.
