Default 6" pro comp lift what shocks to use

Getting a 6" lift using Boss adjustable coilovers up front to level. But what to use out back. I've asked F150lifts and was pointed on this direction. I have a 2011 Screw FX4 Ecoboost thanks all

any monotube shock will be leaps and bounds better than the run of the mill white bodied twin tube shocks the kit will come with. Either upgrade to the MX-6 (i believe thats what they are called) or get the appropriate length bilstein 5100's.

It has to be a shock that is long enough to work with the 6" lift.

2.0 in the rear and boss adj in the front? Adj because I want the truck level but if I haul stuff I can put the front take back in. Make sense [MENTION=161034]one2nine[/MENTION]

I have the 2.0 fox shocks made for the bds 6" lift and fox 2.0 coilovers for the front. I'll also be adding mini packs as well.

It's a 3 pack leaf that replaces the factory overload spring.
