Toxic shocks are probably the absolute WORST shocks you can buy. They are associated with the no so great quality AIM and Chasis Tech. Generally speaking the more money you spend the better. I'd go with Bilstein, Edelbrock, Rancho, BellTech Nitros or Doeshtech, but I would stick with Bilsteins or Edelbrocks, just ordered Edelbrocks. Can't wait to put them on.
Secondly why did your drop kit not come with new shocks? The stock shocks should not be used for as extreme of a drop as you have. Hence, why your ride is so bouncy.

it's funny you say edelbrock shocks i just ripped mine out of my chevy had them on there for 2 weeks and they sucked .. slapped on a set of oem 16 dollar shocks and the bumps were alot better... i spent like 70 bucks a piece on my edelbrocks but i got my money back... i've had only 1 set of toxics they're still on my 79 and i have no complaints about them
