    Yes Sir, they are in very good shape with 17k miles, sent you a pm, im off the rest of the week.
    I was quoted 950 installed from National, lifetime and custom for crawling and hauling, damn those guys know there shit about leafs. After the 700 I dropped for Deavers I think I would rather OMD my stockers as all I have spoke with have nothing but praise.

    Same position in the X-Axis or mount - mount point, just move it up a tad so I can run a longer shackle and not gain so much height

    Can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen Doug

    I'll tell you what, make a batch of your jalapeño chicken and come at me. I will spray you :crapstorm:

    I'm confused, you are going to use an OMD pack, James is going to make a shackle like Eddie's for you and your going to stay SOA?

    Makes since, so is the shackle like the Defined shackle? Since they can be extended length.

    Just so you'd ask RJ....:p


    Actually its an old school setup from my full sized truck days , the 2nd gen 5100's I got from Ryan are valved a little light as opposed to the 5125's I had & with the heavier Chevy springs I run ya need more dampening to compensate for the rate increase, meh, its just a mock up right now may not even do the steps, we'll see

    But I will say with this app. landing from jumps is just butter ass smooth

    Make sense. More shocks more dampening.

    I'm still using the stupid config, but it works quite well with what I have. I do plan on moving to a flipped shackle next summer when I decide on a few other things.

    Niiiiice !! Perfect !! we'll shoot for a 5 or 6 pack then (prolly 6) that stock config is what kept me from sliding an extra leaf on Greg's springs , they were maxed & couldn't fit (or see) "eye to eye"


    no pun intended...:D
