CHEVOTA front shock options
« on: Mar 08, 2021, 08:32:46 AM »
a New to me 1986 Toyota pickup with a 350 chevy in it. Looks to be about 4.5-6" of lift.

35x12.5's and 2" spacers with no rubbing, still IFS

What shock options do I have?

shocks dont support weight, just control jounce and rebound. id measure the shock mounts at rest, flexed out and compressed. with those numbers find a shock that fits in that range.
