The shocks dont come in small increments like the coil rates. Going to be critical to get that eye to eye distance between the brackets to match the center stroke and desired R/H.
Its only time and attention

Yes sir & agreed. I made my template targeting the 14.5" ride height dimension provided in Ridetech's C/O shock specs & the truck mocked @ ride height.
Since I need taller aftermarket or modified wheel wells anyway, going higher (within reason) on the upper mounting pivot is possible. Since that's possible, that's the path I'm taking which allows that longer stroke shocks better ride characteristics.
I'm guessing you have a PB C/O set-up that got some updates/changes to have these spares?
