Who is running a front shock tower? I am going to run 8.5" travel dual rate shocks in the front. I was wondering if anyone is running this setup, and if the have the shock tower dimensions?

all 8" shocks

Front 4" up and 1" out in reference to the stock location
distance between upper mounting points is 19"

leverage ratio shold be near 1.78:1

Fornt Compressed length 13.75

Rusty, you prob know , but check all your axle plunge and then extension at full droop, you might want to go up jus a lil with the tower, depending on the kit you have and the a-arm shock mount position.


Thanks fellas, I try. :eek:
