    As the title say. Will those shocks fit? Did anyone do this?

    Right now I have Fat Bob's lift kit with Fat Bob's rear shocks. Are the TRD Billies better? How can I find out specs on these shocks?

    They will not. Not without some fab work, at least.

    I have a set of the factory billies installed in the rear. I was going to install them all the way around but they are to long for the front. The ride is a little rougher then with the 5 lugger stock shocks. I didnt need to do any modifications.

    Do you know how much longer are they in the front? I don't really need the front to be any higher than it is, now my truck is just about level.
