Re: Cognito shocks are on
Sewie
Is that picture showing the Cognito shock fully extended?
What is the compressed length?
Thanks

Re: Cognito shocks are on
I've been running these shocks since the first of the year and have
had no problems out of them whatsoever (7000+ miles).
Overall ride quality was improved, as well as lateral stability.....
They work very nicely on washboards and really take the
jarring out of medium to severe holes and bumps.
For me, they turned out to be a good investment.
BTW: The truck is leveled via a TB crank, running 17X9 wheels and 12.50X33 Swampers.

Not sure which pic you're referring to.....but no.
I didn't take any measurements.

Re: Cognito shocks are on
Sewie, what was your total ride height after the TB crank and before adding the the cognito's? After I removed the Truxxx kit I just set the ride height to 23" and was going to get an alignment with the new wheels. I don't really like the front stock shocks.
I know the level height would be 24.25" - the same as back - but I am not wanting to level the front end to put the cognito's on.

Re: Cognito shocks are on
I wonder how they'd do on a stock (uncranked) front end. (Is that what you want to do, joedirt)?

I know that before the crank, I believe that the front end sits at around 22.5" for the ride height. I am sitting at around 23" at the moment...a little above stock. My question is, "How high would the ride height have to be before the cognito's can sit comfortably?"

They are meant (I believe) to be used at 24.50"

Good question, that's the way I want to run them too.

$95/ea. I got them from TrailDuty, but TeakaToys also has them, or you can order directly from Cognito.

I'll try, but if they're not easier than the Bilsteins, then you're SOL.
