Re: 1971 K20- project just get driveable!!

I looked on Summit again tonight, and the next shorter set of skyjacker front shocks is for the stock setup, and are only 19" extended, which is about an inch short of what I need for my truck. Its a shame since the compressed length is only 12, which would give me a lot of compressive travel. It seems like they don't really have a shock for a kit anywhere between stock and 4 inches. Guess I will look at other brands or just hope the 3.75" of compressive is enough with the ones I have.
