    I tried emailing dsm 3 days ago I can try calling tonight though.
    Doing 3 inch block now because for allpro 3" leafs it's like 400 bucks that I don't have right now because of (spindles, rear 5150 and new tires I'm getting) plan on all pro eventually but right now money won't allow. I know do it right the first time but I ordered block online yesterday for like 50+ shipping onsale. So for now it's saving me money. But I don't plan on running it like this forever just untill I can fork out the 400.

    I am running allpro 3" pack and 12" was too long. i have 10's because with the 5150, you have to install a stem to eye adapter too.

    Good point about the adapter. The stock stroke is 10", so if you use the adapter, then your going to have to install taller bump stops, so as to not bottom oout the shock, and risk breaking the top shock mount.
