was thinking about getting some monroe air shocks. now i have 1" shackles on the back and i was wanting around another 1.5 or so inches of lift.

I am buying these shocks to lift it. but when my 31's wear out im going back to stock. i still want to use the shocks for towing and what not.

should i get the ma-727's or the ma-820's?

thanks, Matt

anyone???

the idea is that i need shocks that will work with the little lift that i have now. but will also work when i get rid of the lift and go back to stock height......
