    Do you have access to a forklift at work?

    IMG_1283_1a9f4e68c028c78457d331a65edbb42847503d7c.jpg

    Remove the rear shocks If you can do this. Then measure from top shock mount to bottom shock mount on both sides. Lift from each side and measure to get compressed length and extended length for each side. The numbers will be different from side to side.

    Once you know these numbers you can buy the right sized shocks. Leaking shocks are usually caused by either being too long or too short for the application. Since yours is a "custom' leaf setup, the only way to know for sure is to measure your stuff. The Biliie 5125s and 5150s are available in various lengths.

    do as Mike said. I bet your shocks are limiting droop.

    i have the 10'' travel 5150s. The compressed length is too long tho so when i stuff the wheel it puts weight on the closed shock. Thus breaking seals thus why i have a bit of a leak.

    Only noticed tho cause i was under the truck one day. No performance loss. Im relocating them like Jerry has to avoid this and ill actually adjust my bump stops too to prevent it.

    Where in MT will you be? There's lots of Forest Service roads and such to explore just about everywhere. If we know where you'll be we can give you a short list of the best spots.

    Got you on my contact list for the meets too :thumbsup:
