I have a 1990 Mazda B2200. I re-indexed the bars and put 4 inch blocks in with the main leaf and the overload spring left in. I'm not wanting to go monoleaf or anything. I notched the rear and now I am looking for rear shocks that will work decently. I am having a hard time finding one short enough. Anyone have any ideas?

^^ I was wondering where that was. These are the best shocks! I've got air shocks on the rear right now but will be changing to the DT's eventually.

How is the ride with the air shocks? Is it really bumpy? Do you have separate lines for each shock or just one? I was going to do the same thing in the rear until I can get all the stuff for bagging it.
The Toxics I got from you made a big difference in the front end and I also went from an 18 to a 17 and put in DJM lca's

Cool man, good to hear you're happy with the Toxics.
My air shocks are lined together...that's the way the instructions tell you to do it anyway. Not bumpy, or bouncey. I just keep enough pressure in them to raise the rear about an inch to give me clearance from hitting the axle to the frame a lot. It still hits occasionally, but not bad...I've also got a small bit of bump stop left back there. I wouldn't mind having a bit stiffer shock back there, hence why I may try some DT's in the rear.
