Re: coilover shocks

Probably better to just call porterbuilt...

Re: coilover shocks

Yes, 14.5 fully extended. Ride height is 13-12.5 ,and compressed is around 10.5 . I had my shocks built for this application ,they are 14.5 extended with 3.5 inches of travel. 11 is the fully compressed length. I am starting with a 10'' 650/per inch spring. I will order the drop member and control arms in the next month . I cant give any other info because its not all together yet.
