Front Suspension help

Thanks again guys!

Ok so i have decided i am going to go with the QA-1 Stocker Star "R" Front shock. I was teetering on the calvert shocks but i like the adjustability of these. I was going to spring for the double adjustable but at 290 a piece i think i will be fine with the single adjustables unless someone feels it will be worth the extra money? Im hoping they will fit without problems and i think it will help me learn how to dial in a suspension better. Anyone that runs them have any feedback? the part number in jegs is 122-RC1914P just making sure i order the right one.

I took my old shocks out last night to see if i had too short of a shock in the car, when i took the shock out i found i still only have 3 3/4 inch of front end travel then the UCA bottoms out on the frame. Im assuming the only way to gain more is to put in those ball joints? Im assuming a 1 inch taller on the top or .5 top and .5 bottom? or do i go with 1 inch on top and bottom and give myself more travel? And to the people that have run the taller joints did you NEED to change the cross shaft right away or is it just a good idea? thanks again guys really appreciate it.
