Newly Lifted rig, What Shocks?
I lifted my truck somewhere a bit north of 6"
REAR: DIY 4" shackle flip, Reverse the mounts, 56" springs with 4" lift, removed the helper spring... FRONT: DIY FGB52's mounts, Moved stock 52" rear springs to the front, slipped the helper spring from the rear in to level it up.... waiting until rears sag a bit, then I'll slip the helper spring back out. I also did 1 ton axles. Long story short nothing I can purchase directly out of a catelog with any confidence. I measured the Front and Rear shock mount lengths and got: Front 20.5" c to c Rear 26.5" c to c Any ideas on what shocks/part numbers fit? Oh and here is a poser shot, no front brake lines, no front shaft, and no fender trimming yet... Just got her rolled out of the barn had 3/4" of clearence to spare! I'm 6' 4" tall...
