Arrow i need new shocks.

i really need new rear shocks...they are rusted through in spots...but i dont know much about them....


1st of all (i believe) i've got 3" body lift and 3" blocks...will this change the shocks (travel length??) i need to get??

2nd, im honestly on a budget for this truck build and i was wondering if i will regret buying the cheaper monroe shocks...i dont plan on driving this more than a few hundered miles a year.

is there 2 3" blocks in the rear or just one, is there one in the front? you should only have 2 leafs in the front if it is stock.

if there is 2 in the rear you have lift blocks if not they cam factory with a 3" block in the rear
