Front shock question - 5/7 drop - 98 Chevy

Ok so I have nearly everything ordered to put the 5/7 drop on my 98 Chevy. The rear kit comes with the shock extensions.....do I need drop shocks for the front? If so, is the Belltech 8006 the correct one?

Anyone know what I can use?

Id be interested to know what people have used as well. My shocks are SHOT and Im sure its because the stock height ones were left on there.

I found out from Arkansas Customs here locally that the 8006 is the one to use and so I bought a pair. Drop goes on tomorrow. I am curious still what parts store shocks people run.

I bought JDM Calmax for the front a few months back, I'll have
to do some digging to find the part number JDM recommended.
