Default 06 rubicon--looking for replacement shocks

I'm wanting to get some after market shocks for my '06 rubicon.

I've had progressive 512 on my 450s foreman for years and LOVE them. But they are a little pricey, plus I don't see where progressive is offering them for the rubicon.

Here's what I'm look for.

I need something to stiffen the frontend when I have the plow on. The stock shocks get absolutely smashed down when ever I lift the blade.

I also want to be able to soften the ride on the trail. Have the ability to adjust up and down.

I've read about the CTE shocks, but can't seem to find the thread on it.

Do the CTE increase clearance. The progressive I had on the foreman raised the bike about 1".

Ok, let her fly. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks
Blessings,
Trhod

No problem,
let me know how you like the shocks if you get them though.
my front end sags quite a bit when i have my blade on too.
