Exclamation shock extensions

Is DJM the only company that makes shock extensions for a square? I see by the PDF instructions you have to modify the truck to make these fit. It`s not that hard , but you would think someone would make some that actually fit. Hell , can`t even find any from companies that make junk parts that have them.

Re: shock extensions

Mcgaughy's and belltech should both have the shock extenders for a square.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
