    Icon's will work too I believe for the front:
    (2) 8.6" Travel Icon Mono-Tube Cad Plated Shocks @Top Gun Customz

    I should mention that these shocks will only work if you modify it to be eye to eye instead of eye to pin

    Oh and are you sure on the shock measurements? I just got this in an email from Fabtech:
    Fronts are 22.43 to 13.70
    Rear 29.17 to 16.89

    ya i was just goin from solid numbers...i dont think the .7 or .43 would really matter, I was just lookin in general to find ones in that area.

    and I was gonna get an adapter so I dont have to stick just to the stem mount.

    I don't think you would really feel a difference. Alt won't charge at idle and it could run hot being in texas
