Shocks - Rear - HELP?

06 H3 - w/o Adv Pkg. New Owner.
 
Okay folks, I need your help regarding rear shocks - I have leveled the front (TB crank method) and have my eyes on those cognito shocks BUT nobody here ever talks about the rear shocks.  I have not found really any matching rear shocks that goes along with and matches the front cognitos.  I am kind of a perfectionist and want to do all four corners with a leveled front end.  I really do not want to go with the shock extenders either.  All help is welcome as to other brands etc.
 
Thanks in advance.

Why do you want to change your shocks in the back?, if you want to spend money on shocks the I would recommend going with a level kit instead and at the same time you won't have as much stress on the front end.  

Oh! and welcome to the forum!!

You wouldn't need extended shocks at the back, because you didn't adjust the height. And a level kit won't reduce the stress on the front end. The torsion bars were ment to be adjusted.

I disagree on the stress part, I did the T-bar adjustment first and at 3 turns the rubber stops were almost touching the a arms the shocks had more tension on them and the front end was still not level, the Tbar adjustment is great for people who add weight to the front end like a plow and so on,  with the leveling kit now installed for over a year the ride is allot better then the Tbar adjustment and the rubber stop are where they are suppose to be and same for the shocks.  

Black_Impala - thanks for your reply; however, I was not needing extended rear shocks, i was just wanting some sort of matching shocks (brand/valving, etc) on the back as I will be putting on the front.  I know it is probably not a huge deal - just a preference.
 
I may just go with the lift kit and be done with it for now - I can always remove the mount extender for new shocks later but I am still wondering what people do when they lift just the front then add extended shocks in the front and then what matching shocks do they install in the back.  I am kind of a perfectionist when it comes to these things - I like the same all around.
 
Any help and suggestions are still welcome.

You could do a search, but I think Rancho has a set of extended front shocks, and of course replacement rears. They would match brand wise, but not sure on the valving.

Blackbear,
 
  How does a "leveling kit" differ from just adjusting the torsion bars ?
 
P.S.  That is a nice ride you have there.
