Question About Belltech Shocks!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm doing a frame-up on a 68 GMC 1/2 ton and tonight mounted my Belltechs on all four corners. The rears are fine( 4" drop) but the front's travel distance are extended all the way out. The front has 1 coil cut off with 2.5" dropped spindles but I know the spindles doesn't make a difference with the shocks.I ordered 0"-2" dropped shocks. There are no weight on the frame.(no cab, no motor, no trans,etc) Do you think by the time the cab is mounted, the engine and trans are in, and the front clip are on that it will give me some travel distance on my shocks. If I had ordered 3"-4" shocks they would have really been short. Any suggestions or comments. Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks,
Bryan
