Re: do i need special shocks for lowering springs
You can NOT use SN95 shocks, as they are longer (some SN95 guys run Fox struts for that reason).
You should be ok with Fox struts/shocks. 2" is a LOT on a street vehicle. You'll also need to make sure you dont upset the bumpsteer characteristics... there is more to it, than just slapping in a set of low springs. Do a search on KYB... (IMOHO KYB are $#@&). Go with Bilstein, or Tokiko.
