    This depends on shock length and leaf pack. My Deavers and the Icons I had them paired with had a lot of droop. I had to take the brake line bracket off the axle to get it to work.

    True. Should be fairly similar since its the same pack (except i have a couple extra leafs) and same travel shocks. See when i cycle i suppose

    Is 12" the standard for shock relocation? I ask because I'm sitting here thinking about it and my expos out travel my shocks by a ton. And by a ton I mean when I put them on and attached them to the axle, I had to jack the axle up like 2 inches just to get the mounts close enough to get the shock in place. And I think my shock right now is a 9.75" travel fox.

    Obviously I need to pull the shock, cycle the suspension and measure to see what my springs are pulling travel wise bump to full droop, but is anyone running anything bigger than a 12" shock relocated while still Spring over?

    What did u do with the bracket? With 26" extended length rear shocks my lines just started to stretch at full drop (on jack stands) so I loosened the bracket and put a bolt under it to change the angle. This was just enough to keep some slack in the brake line. This was with 3deg shims on the axle to.

    Which would require a bedcage, correct?

    Not a full bed cage but I'd say at least a support between the shock towers or hoop if that's the way you are going.

    Hmmm. Will definitely be looking into this.

    What is everyone else running in the rear? Just curious.

    This is AP Expos with 12" king and bamf shock relocate. Leafs are pretty new and still stiff. Probably get a little more flex once they break in a bit.image.jpg
