    If you don't mind a rough ride, I would go with stock. They will be in good condition and will do the job.
    If you want lifting springs to make it level instead of lifing with the shock, I'd get new ones. Ride will be better because the springs will not be pre-loaded.

    billies ride better than stock shocks so doubt it will be that harsh at .85 or 1.75 mine are set at 1.75 and ride way better than stock
