    Anyone need shocks? I just ordered some 3.0's so I've got a set of 2.5x18" triple bypass kings. New in box. I'm thinking $1k

    The shocks won't fit any build. If you're not cycling enough of the shock shaft, you're not utilizing enough of the tubes. Sure they will fit and they will dampen, but they're not going to be doing their job like they're supposed to.

    Jeff's right. But if I was setting up a giant 64" kit I'd go with an 18" shock if possible. 16" minimum

    You're correct. Jeff was more talking about the bypasses not being effective if the suspension doesn't have enough travel to use the whole shock.

    I've done it in bmw's and 240's. I'm laying one out for my truck, but I'm
    Pretty sure the first gen is simpler as you'll only need one master cylinder

    They sold this morning for $1200 on another forum. Wonder why they are running 16" shocks on a kit that claims 21" of travel. It'll be interesting to see how much they angle the shocks.

    IIRC I don't have much off an angle on my shocks (about 15 deg) and I'm pulling 18-19" of travel on my DMZ kit with 14" shocks. Or is 15 degrees considered a lot of angle?

    ...too much shit to list.

    Ummm....does not compute. At 15 degree angle with full droop you are ballpark 16.6" of travel. Someone is giving you funny numbers or kibbe tape measure.

    Maybe it's 15 degrees at full bump. Only way I see it getting close

    Na. Opposite. 15 at bump means the angle would be less at droop which means travel would be less.

    You're correct. Droop is what I meant. Not supposed to be on the cell phone at work so I rush most of my answers. You can have the trig. That shit takes me back to vectors and electric theory
