So how am I suppose to tell how much weight a shock can handle?

Can't help with the sizing part, but G1 (electric) shocks were alittle stiffer to carry the weight of the batteries, that might help. If your old shocks aren't worn out, maybe a better idea would to buy or build 2" upper shock extenders. I think I saw some on Ebay for 20 bucks. Let us know what you come up with.
