    Brian, how much room do you have behind those Ford towers? Any chance of snapping a pic and measuring how much room behind them?

    Thanks sir :thumbsup:

    There is no room behind them. I'm actually getting ready to pull them off and relocate the shocks inboard.

    oh damn.

    I'm trying to figure out how to best fit a 14" King with RR in the rear. The BAMF can only take a 12" shock, and the Archive Garage towers are stupid expensive.

    Yup.

    What?

    My tires rub the shock and I keep bottoming the shock out when fully compressed.

    Good to know.

    Could you slice some of the back portion off of the ford towers to gain more clearance so they are more inset? or would there not be enough room without cutting into the bed?

    Kinda like this:

    Can't find any good pics online to see how much room is left over, to see if it's feasible or not, which is why I'm asking.

    Yeah that's why.

    According to this picture (yours)...it looks like there is some room to either angle them back further or inset them some...but still not sure if that 1/2" of clearance to be gained would be enough to still clear the stocks or not. Custom towers appear to be the best solution, since Archive Garage towers are too damn expensive.
