Redoing the suspension, I got the 3400lb SS MP leaf springs, wondering what people do for shocks. I was thinking the MP rear “drag shocks” that are made for the SS springs, but not sure about fronts. Anyone have experience or recommendations for either? Thanks.
 
90/10 on the front. But those are race type for better transfer. Not to good on a street driven car unless street racing is the game.

The Mopar long shock on the back with SS springs are recommended and help them perform to the design. They are good and look stock. If you use a short standard type shock on the rear you will defeat the SS spring as designed as your travel will be limited. If it is all custom then disregard anything I have posted!

Nothing custom, running the 3400 super stock springs. I was pretty set on the MP shocks since, well, they’re designed for the springs! I wasn’t sure about the front. A lot are saying the 90/10 but I also want something I could daily drive and not hate lol.
 
You will hate 90/10 on a driver! Ask me how I know! I had a vision in my head from the old days and now are unhappy!
 
The MP rears are good for me and happy with that end!
 
Do not know!

I have Lakewood 90/10 on the front now and have dressed them to look stock. They work as designed as the car hooks great but!

My plan would be to go back with a stock replacement gas type or KYB.
