Default Lakewood 50/50 rear shocks.
Put a bid on a set on E-bay. Are they good shocks?

yea, your stock is already 50/50 though so unless your stock's are bad you probably won't tell a difference.

For the rear?
Always thought you wanted 50/50 in the rear and 90/10 for a drag racing setup?

On the rear you need a true 50/50. For the front you could use a 90/10 but in my experience they jerk the front end too much. I'd go with the 80/20....

90/10 is optimum for traction
