[rgacord]

i'm not going to B S anybody, i got this rig AS IS . i can't claim any ideas or labor (not yet)* it has a bobbed bed, 63 in. chevy springs , rebuilt axle with aussie locker, 5.29 gears on the rear, up front--rebuilt, trussed, gusseted, tru-trac locker, marlin hysteer, power steering, not sure what springs, on 35 in. procomp, 16 in. black steelies. procomp shocks front and rear. new marlin trans(5spd) rebuilt transfer w/ marlin 4.7 kit and twin sticks. weber 32-36, rock lights front and rear, full doors and half doors(with cup holders) reversible/ swing away tire carrier, sliders, front stinger bumper w/hellas and more.   NICE START HUH.,,, but,,,,, i put the right front up on a rock( 28 inches) the right rear was 8 inches off the ground. the shock was fully extended. i'll send a pic of the rear shock set up. besides the shock being to short,,can i move the upper end of the shocks towards the outside to get more drop?

from what I see you should flip that muffler 90 degree's and have the dump dumping down lol. Just kidding but I would say your shocks are deff way to short I cant see the whole truck odviously but usually most people don't want a loot of up travel as they utalize all the down travel to get articulation. I would consider ditching those 10" shocks and getting 12" shocks.I would say those are almost even shorter than tens but 12's generally work with a low amount of lift in the rear and that set up you have. I would try that and we can't see the shackle angle so I couldnt tell you what to do there but 63s drop for days so they aren't allowed by the shock for sure.
