Re: Pics of multi shock kit(x-mas stuff)
Tim, the truck corners 100% better. It doesn't seem to feel every bump in the road as bad.
PhilD- I didn't change anything other than adding the shocks. It actually looks okay. If I measure from the ground to the fender flare the front and the back are the same height. It sat a little higher in the front before. I'm not complaining just wondering what might have caused it to drop.
The shocks that are connected to the shock hoop are actually pulling down on the truck. They are opposite the single shock. I guess they are suppose to work against each other.

Re: Pics of multi shock kit(x-mas stuff)
When I took the shocks out of the box the rods were inside the shock body. You have to pull the rod out to mount it. Sorry, I just did a poor job explaining earlier.  |

Re: Pics of multi shock kit(x-mas stuff)
I have the same set up. No change in height at all.
I noticed it handles the curbs much better at the local Hooters I go to though.

I've had several question about my wheel and tire combo. They are 38x15.50x18 nitto mud grapplers and 18x9 moto metal wheels.

Re: Pics of multi shock kit(x-mas stuff)
Very nice looking truck!
How much total height did you gain from stock to now?
The reason I ask is because I've got a 6" lift, 18" rims, and 38" tires coming. Was wondering what kind of height I'd gain.

Re: Pics of multi shock kit(x-mas stuff)
Shocks shouldnt change ride height at all... Those shocks dont have much travel do they?? Looks like they have an inch or two before they are fully compressed..
