    You running 18" shocks:confused:

    You should have a bit left at both end of the shock but that seems like quite a bit.

    5 Degrees is what Mike says to set the yoke at, as this is the approximate angle of the fixed part of the 2-piece driveshaft :cool:

    No I'm not mad at the number at all, it has a huge gain in up travel from stock and I hit a drainage ditch and the rear handled it great. We could of mounted the shock level with the bed but figured it was better to split the difference. Mike recommends a 14" shock with his kit if u talk to him.

    Ya I have but he also recommends the 14" shock with his shock hoops.

    JW if you did talk to him as to possibly know why 14's still great and the up-travel benefit is what really matters

    If I decide on it American Motorsports will be making it. I really like the one I started so I may just finish mine but with the bedcage being 2" I kind of want the front bumper to match.
