Default Question about shocks for ladder bars

I have heard various opinions. Do you need double adjustable shocks on a ladder bar coil over car or are single adjustable all you need.
Car is 3100lbs w/driver runs a 29x10 bias tires 3 speed automatic and should run 6.40's in the 1/8th mile

If you are buying shocks I would get the double adjustable. That said my car is a ladder bar car and I have singles. When I need new shocks I will be putting doubles on it. I run a radial that is a bit bigger than the tire you are running. The doubles will help a radial car more than bias.

I have QA1 on the back of my car. Santhuff doubles on the front. I would say the strange and QA1 are the same quality. Santhuff is the Cadillac of shocks.
