Shocks with bags...
I finally got all my front suspension on today and put on the wheels (frame only) and measured my aired out distance on my shock mounts. I have 10" excatly center to center mounting holes. I did alot of searching and still looking through PDF of Monroes shocks, their shock lenghts.. I was wondering if anyone else has close to same amount of aired out height and what shocks are you running?
Thanks! Last edited by tonypaul; 09-26-2010 at 08:34 PM. Reason: xxx |

Re: Shocks with bags...
OE replacement shocks are about 10" compressed length.

Re: Shocks with bags...
Thanks everyone for the advice! I didnt even think about measuring my old shocks to see if they would work.... I guess I was just so excited about finally getting the frame rolling again.
Thanks again!!! |

Re: Shocks with bags...
I used Ridetech upper shock mounts with Monroe shocks from a 1994-200? Ford E-150 van.
