    Just installed. I flexed it out w/the shocks d/c'd in that picture... I still need to get longer shocks... Hoping to measure for them this week.

    If I go off-road now I'm going to break a lot of crap. Mainly shocks and brake lines, lol.

    Updated the list. ONE SET LEFT!!!!

    As for shocks, relocation is not necessary. They need to be about 3-3.5" longer than stock. I think the Ford mount is a good option if you want to have more shock choices. Going to look into it a little further. :cool:

    Can you put up some pictures? Just found this thread and need something more than CAD to be persuaded.
    Also alot of pages to look through, but do know the length of shocks needed to run these?
