    @ovrlndkull where's your lower shock mount sit? Mine should be inline with the axle so if it hits the tab it the axle as well.

    Shit mine is way up. But I also raised my AG relocation an inch higher with my 1" BL. I also set them for 1/3 bump and 2/3 droop approx. with 14" kings. The lower eyelet is about 1/2"-1" above the top of the axle tube. With how I have it set I can go to a 16" shock and then be below the axle tube ~1" and gain 1" droop and 1" bump.

    I spent probably 3 months measuring, calculating, researching, and reading a bunch of different set ups since I was going 63s
    This is the best pic I can find right now I'll see if I can find a better one

    You should read more thoroughly and completely. Sandwiched between what you pointed out was this....

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ctive-1-set-left.691150/page-13#post-25020187

    and this

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ctive-1-set-left.691150/page-13#post-25030829

    The fox shock that i have in my hand right now with p/n# 985-26-054 is a 12" shock with eyelet bushings on both ends. Looks completely correct to me and verified by people who know a lot more than me.

    Apparently no one selling the shock has noticed though. .

    With a little luck I'll be bending steel tubes this weekend, if not it will be next week, and picking up cnc cut parts on the 15th to weld everything together.

    Group 2 hardware kits coming together.IMG_20210210_071620072.jpg
    CNC cut parts and tube is supposed to be delivered Monday. Assuming we don't have any more delays on tube availability these should ship by the end of Feb.

    1 set left!
