Hunting Shock Extenders/Relocators - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**nlped** · 02-20-2010, 08:30 PM

Hey all,

I did a search, but couldn't find what I was looking for. I need to put a set of shock extenders or shock relocators on the rear of my '87 (It has a '94 rearend under to make this even more difficult). It has a flip kit and I would like to put a close to factory length shock on the rear, rather than the Uber short drop shock back there. I don't want to spend a small fortune on them though. If someone has a set they could measure up for me (or just want sell

) that would be great. I could build them, but I don't want to just guess on them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are those ment to be just bolted on or cut off the old and weld on the new?
