    If I rotate it 180* then the compression/rebound tubes are not accessible. However, I had similar thoughts along those lines. Initally I tried with the shocks on opposite sides (driver on passenger and passenger on driver) but then I had too much hose and couldn't find a clean spot to put the resi. So I just did basically what was I saw on TC's website:

    Could not have done it without you buddy! Thanks for the help and pointers.




    Small tweak. After cycling the suspension lock to lock I ran into some fitment issues with the resis. So I moved them. So not incognito. Just sitting at the gas filling up today two different random dudes walked up asking about the suspension. :cool:

    Nearly 500 posts, probably of which 451 are bullshit, I don't blame you at all for asking what may have been asked. It's a new question though!

    Ended up drilling 4 holes in the base of each case and through the bed. Dumped silicon in each hole before running the bolts through. I know I know, you're not supposed to drill holes in them, but whatever. It works and all my crap still stays dry. Hell I've even filled one up with beer and snow before. Never leaked a drop.

    No offense taken. There's some talk of limit straps 15 pages or so back in the build. My suspension actually does the limiting on the rear. My bed cage sits kind of low compared to some other trucks. So at full droop, I can pull the lower shocks bolts and still have another inch of travel out of the shocks. I planned on strapping them, but its been low on the priorety list.
