    I was going to wire it up myself but I couldn't figure out how to kill the main service panel with my 240v service - didn't want to work on a live panel. Only my subpanel was on a Breaker. I asked the electrician and he told me to grab the electric meter and yank as hard as I can and it would kill all electrical service to the house.

    Pretty dramatic way to cut power, lol.

    I think you worded it wrong when you first brought it up. /\ shocks like that are for flex and that's about it. | | this is the best for most DD/weekend warrior rigs. This is what I'll attempt to do, maybe with a slight angle, haven't looked into it as it'll be one of the last things I do

    Perks of having the truck in the garage is it's not as cold.

    Downside is no TITS :pout:

    Your prior post, and this one, are describing shocks that are angled in at the top. And while inboard of the frame, not all relocation have to be setup like that. There's lots of ways to relocate shocks based on what you are trying to achieve.

    I still think it's a waste to put high end shocks on the stock mounts. You'll never get shocks that match the leaf travel. So 'getting all the travel you can' like you asked about earlier, Will always be a compromise.

    One of our locals put one from a jeep on his frontier and it actually came out kinda cool. Sorry no pic. Seems like it would be great in the summerto help keep the engine bay cooler
