    Found another place to wheel my truck. I think my shocks may be limiting my travel. I'll post pics later when I get back from my flight. Got my truck to teeter on 2 wheels!

    Experimenting to see what I would need to do to fit 255/85's...

    Who says IFS can't flex?
    IMG_0296_zpsiatlswcu_420f919ed1eba3d753ac7847f60f6e233b27195b.jpg

    Lifted a tire! If the axle won't flex any more without touching the bump stops, what would be ideal for me to do?

    Don't think so, I know for us 2nd gens we use 12" travel shocks which is like twice the length of my current ones, i'd call Jerry at BAMF and ask what shocks are best, I know he makes a first gen shock relocation

    Hell yeah ^ your shock is limited the travel. The point of the shock relocation is to move the upper mount up to account for your new longer shock.

    Looked into shock relocation. Looks like a lot of work....is there anything I can do without doing that? Keep in mind I also have the stock springs

    If your shock is limiting your travel then no the only thing to get more travel is a shock relocation.

    Smh shock relocation is child's play.
    What he said. You can't put in the longer shock without the relocation because the new shock will bottom out early. As shock travel increases its a compromise between extension and compression. As you go up 2" in travel numbers you usually end up with a 2" longer compression number and a 4" longer extension number.
