Shock Relocation!!!<<<
We lowered the truck 4 in. We want to relocate the shocks so they will be vertical and not a 45 degree angle...
Some people say we don't need it, but we want to... What is the best and right way of doing this without buying the kit.. Thanks JASon

you can try this
A friend of mine had that problem we had a machine shop fab up some spacers and swapped the lower shock mounts from side to side and flipped them 180 degress in the process. This lowers the lower shock mount by approx 1.5 inches. On the top cut the rivets off the mounts and reattach them with bolts and spin the upper mounts so that the upper hole is more directly above the lower location.

ECE makes a shock relocator kit. I have one and highly recommend it.
