    I've been chasing mine for a while now. Even had the shop do a smoke test. I am thinking it's my brake booster. Brakes haven't been feeling right. If it's not that, then I'm going to have to try putting in a new O2 sensor.

    So I'm pretty sure I messed up when I ordered parts. I've got these waiting to be installed.

    25001-151 fronts & 25001-153 rears

    I am waiting on my leaf springs to come in. I went with All-Pro Standards. But with now much lift and flex they will provide, I realized (only after ordering) that these rear shocks are going to be too short. Correct me if I am wrong. These shocks are ~8inch of travel, and that won't quite be enough, even with SuperBumps on. If I can keep these, that'd be great. But if not, would these be of sufficient length?

    those are about as long as you can go on stock mounts (collapsed length). youl need to look into relocating for longer or go with a short body 10" and relocate bumps.

    I got 12" shocks with my all pro expo leaf springs. Though I welded new mounts on. Can't wait till I have some weight on just to improve the ride a bit more. Just bare empty bed is a little bit rough but way better than stock

    I have been running the 25001-151 fronts and these in the rear https://downsouthmotorsports.com/i-...shing-shock-in-10-inch-travel-980-24-032.html these give me 1.33 inches more down travel. Its best to just measure to be sure.

    This^^ I wanted matching King rears but didnt want to relocate my shocks and all that crap. BAMF doesn't even make them any longer. Went with Fox rears in stock location and love it.

    If your running those with stock mounted then I see no reason why you couldn't run some king 10" smoothies like pr2010-ss, they're about the same price as those foxes.

    The reason I would not run them is they are about an inch longer Collapsed Length
