I have a 83 d150 slant six I'm going to get the moog 7226s coils which are for 3/4 ton for drive height and i was wondering if the Gabriel 34052 Load Carrier Front Towing Shocks Absorbers with Coil Springs front and the Monroe Load Adjusting 58571 for the rear are worth the money the rear is around 136 and the front is around 93. Any help would be great.

These are the ones with the coil spring around the outside of the springs? I wouldn't run those on the front.
I've always had good luck with Gabriel ultras.
I've tried others, from kyb to a few of the different Monroe offerings. And have always gone back to the Gabriels.
And the shocks are the same for 1/2-3/4-1 ton models those years.

Understood for the front are this the shocks you are talking about? G63359 white ultra

Will those work with a lift ? I added some 1 ton coils and it lifted it quite a bit 2 to 3 inches

Well they list the same PN for 1/2-3/4-1 ton so I'd think so. You picked "stock" 1 ton springs right?

I assume so. Didn't know they had different lift.
Here is a pic
