I use stock length shocks with my chassis tech coils. I used the summit drop shocks but blew one. What make and model vehicles uses a Monomax that is 2" shorter?

i blew the toxic drop shock i had on my cut springs like in 1 month. but hopefully the new setup i got works out. i actually bought the same toxic shock i have on right now and see how that works out. For the monomax, sean actually PM message me this when i asked him what he used on his truck. I believe he had balljoint flip and belltech springs.

" KYB monomax 565030??? I think but dont not quote me on that. "

i would actually probably do more research on the part number he gave. but if the toxic shocks don't work out for me i will be getting the monomax. hopefully this helps.

Best free advice. Go with the monomax. They lasted a lot longer and then the toxics.

As Chris stated, the flip and rear blocks don't affect shock length. And really, the only time you need to look for shorter shocks is if you're running a decent amount of coil drop, or leaf spring drop.

So with the flip and a set of BT coils, stock length shocks will work just fine, especially on a std cab.

KYB Monomax stock length front = 565030
KYB Monomax stock length rear = 565065
Toxic slim body front stock length = 413515
