Rear shock relocation

[Andy4639]

I just installed the new adjustable bar but haven't drove it enough to tell a big deferance yet. I cut some 3" angle at work the other day to make the relocator for the shocks. I haven't installed them yet, because I need longer U-bolts.

With a little modification, you can modify the stock brackets to relocate the shocks just like aftermarket brackets do.

Flip the lower brackets from side to side (EX: The top of the bracket that was on the drivers side would now be the bottom of the pass side). It requires flattening out the bracket some or you can make spacers, you just want it will lay flat on the trailing arm. This is worth about 1.5" of shock travel.

The uppers you re-drill the shock bolt hole higher up on the side of the original bracket & then trim the excess metal off so the shoulder of the shock doesn't hit the bracket. This one will also get around 1.5" of additional shock travel depending on how high the hole is re-drilled.
