    I took a wrong turn earlier today and ended up behind a brand new 1M sqft warehouse. Thought, what the hell, let’s take a few quick pics.

    They will most likely be all the shock you’ll ever need

    Yeah these will be nice since they are the equivalent to 5160’s...where the 5125’s I was going to run are just longer 5100’s.

    And these won’t have to be rebuilt every few years like Kings :D it’s a nice in-between shock.

    I believe so. One of the reasons I’ll be looking at 6112’s when I upgrade the front

    I'm kinda looking at those now too, but I don't know how well they'll hold the weight.

    Every few years more like every 15-20k so for me once a year or so. Or at least that's on the high side of the mileage for a DD from the smarty mcsmart pants shock guys I've been talking to. When mine need a rebuild they'll be getting swapped for 16s
    They look good. Will have to find a sleeve for the shock eyes since they are for whatever reason 5/8" instead of the std 1/2" so we can run them with the right bolts. Shouldn't be too hard to fudge around somewhere and find something that can work. Oh what about your lower shock mounts what are we doing for them.

    I wasn’t sure about the eyelet size...figure we can enlarge holes if needed on bottom and top.

    I have the ruffstuff mounts linked in OP

    Hell yeah it is. That's what they tint a lot of big windowed retail stores with. You can litterally tint at like 98% and have the same reflective and "cooling" abilities as 20%. It reflects all the UV rays and radiation that heats up the interior. Wish I had done it now once I found out about it. I'll eventually get around to having it redone.
