    Does this rear shock install look right? Does the resi face forward or towards the back? Thanks149959448253967621022.jpg

    Keep an eye on the passenger resi to make sure it doesn't rub on the parking brake cable. You may not have that issue since you have different leaf springs. Mine would rub on one of the factory leaf clamps, so I rotated it just a little and then it was rubbing on the parking brake cable/bracket. I ended up making some mounts and moving them to the frame, which is where I wanted them originally.

    I like them a lot, they definitely help under heavy loads. However I Can't really compare them to anything else since these have been the only aftermarket bumps I've had.

    20170709_110123.jpg 20170709_231808.jpg Well guys, I got both sides on properly, thanks for the advice and support. This rear suspension has been sitting around for a while in my garage. So I decided to begin Install yesterday, when it was 116 degrees and 105 today. #ftw.:bananadead:

    IMG_3052.jpg I installed mine this way just to avoid any rubbing on any brake lines.

    I know kings tend to be installed like this for the rear, but did you ditch the resi bracket that would normally couple them together? I think this set up or going with attaching the resi like others have done will work too. I like this set up here, but would suck to have to buy additional resi brackets to achieve this.

    @Coot83 I did ditch the original brackets. I didn't buy any brackets ,I had some stainless steel brackets made by my brother which made the install easy. I'm happy with the way it came out.
