    Can I ask a huge favor? As a baseline for me to start fabbing some shock mounts, can someone with 12" travel shock in the rear of a second gen, measure how high from the top of the frame, to the center of the top eyelet sits on their shock mounts? Also how much wider would be nice too. Thanks

    Mustang, Coyote engine, now the F series has one, good Engine that had issues early on.

    Cost wise a GM performance package LS3 complete engine with ECU is still best bang for the buck.
    new engine that is.

    There is no right answer to this, there are so many variables like what shock, where on the axle are you mounting the shocks? Also you need to cycle this setup a lot to make sure it clears the frame and tire in articulation.

    I don't really know Ricor shocks, but that seems like a decent price for some 3.5x18" bypasses. Too bad I'm not quite ready to LT my rear yet...
