Mini-tubbed, what shocks do i need

Good point tho, so I don't want a shorter shock, I actually just need a weaker shock right ?
I'm going to buy a cheap set of shocks to toss in and see where the car sits then.

The shocks are not going to determine ride height, that is what the springs do. Where your car sits without the shocks is going to be where is sits with the shocks, as long as you're not using the coil overs.
