You can run anything from Toxic, Belltech, McGaughys, DJM, Doestch drop shocks and on!
I don't know much abot Belltech shocks but I heard they're too soft, Max can confirm

Toxics are fine. If you buy coils get some belltech pros, they'll ride way nicer. It all depends on how you drop it and with which components.

Dude your truck is NOT TORSION BAR! Consider it a 99 otherwise you'll get incorrect parts. Totally different suspensions between the 95-00 OBS and the 00-06 NBS.

I think you can go 5 or 6", I'd start with some 2" spindles and the 4" rear spring hanger/shackle kit. You can always hook some 1" or 2" front springs later but I think you'll be chill with just a 2/4 on that truck...body kit makes em look low as hell.

if after the spindles are installed you're not happy with it being low enough you can THEN swap out the stock springs for a 1 or 2" drop spring...
