    I currently have the DJM 3/4 Drop on my 04 Reg Cab Tacoma with stock shocks sitting on the stock height bump stops. Plan on putting KYB Monomax in the front but been trying to figure out what to put in the rear. Curious if anyone has installed Airlift SlamAir or Monroe Airshocks while being lowered?

    I would like to have a generally low height decent ride but I time to time would like to load the trunk up with some a few sheets of plywood/drywall/mdf and some lumber, at most a few hundred hundred pounds.

    Also if someone could recommend me a low profile bump stop that would be great! Streettacos doesn't seem to ever have the energy with the plate in stock anymore. Also the model number for KYB monomax.

    i'm looking for shorter shocks myself. I think I can get an inch lower (hopefully more) if I use nissan quest shocks. KYB gas adjust.

    here is a picture so you can see how low I am on stock (kyb gas adjusts) length shocks.

    I went with 1982 corevette shocks (KYB gas a just) and the ride is alot stiffer and has room to go lower. just waiting to get the brackets welded on for the front KYB shocks.
