No Limit '72 C-10

More drop is no problem. The shock in the photo Measures - now get this - 22.5" open, and 12.25" closed. Now, not too many of us have use for 10+" of travel, but the longer shock has a larger resivour. To go lower, we just use a shorter shock. The shock shown will still have a 1/2" of stroke left when the axle hits the frame. For trucks with shorter springs and C notches, we use a shock that measures 9" closed, and 16" open. This still has 7" of travel.

That's hard to tell from the pics & good for those w/more drop. That's still a decent length shock.

Rob,... don't you think a spring with 2" more drop will change the angle of the shock?
I picture it being "layed down" at a more horizontal angle,... unless the upper shock mount is moved forward.
Maybe it's not enoungh to matter.
Your thoughts?
