    If it does it easily then you'll probably have to have them replaced. Almost all shocks are are setup like that. The C/O's on the front of your truck are probably like that too. They should be very stiff, like a brand new uniball. :cool:

    I know mine feels lighter in the front end when my tank is low. I guess it also depends on how you have it set up, behind the cab or farther back. With a full tank, everything feels really even and smooth. BTW, you won't pass smog with one is that's an issue :p

    As long as you reuse all your stock senders, pumps, filters, etc it should pass. If all you changed was the physical tank size and location. At least that's what I've been told.

    Are the Allpro 2" over axles the same as the TC's? I mean will they work with the TC LT kit?

    Or are they all a little different in length?

    As long as you have misaligments on them it shouldnt matter, they should be able to twist. That is why they are uniballs and not standard bearings

    the shock body will rotate on the upper uniball once they are even a little worn. that is why king makes bushing that goes between the shock body and the mounting tabs. to prevent shocks from slapping from side to side.
