Re: Shocks
It will be without the weight of the body on the frame.

Re: Shocks
Some new shocks are REALLY stiff. It took ALL my weight(180 pounds) to compress my new ones.

Re: Shocks
You are missing a couple of thousand pounds to help you. Till you get it pretty close to built wont move much. Like TJ said some shocks are a bit stiff by hand.
