Re: shock help plz

I am in the same spot. I found the relocator kits, I'm just worrying about blowing out the shocks due to to much compression/extention.

Re: shock help plz

are you talking front or rear shocks, if the front what control arms /spindles did you use?
The rears is easy, just take you shock perches under the u bolts and flip and reverse them (once you flatten the lip) and get some upper relocators, or you can do a search on here and theres a thread that shows how to modify and use your factory upper shock mounts in the rear.
