That might be doable man, I'm just not sure how much room you have down there, all I remember is the fuel pump

Repositioning the shocks at an angle underneath may allow you to use the existing shocks and achieve the travel that you are looking for.

Inverting the shocks sounds like a sweet idea for the rear! I think it could work, i will have to check to see what i have in the way. It looks like I will still need to build hoops for the front though.

How did you mount the base of the shock to the axle? Did you just weld a bolt head to the axle?

Cheap and easy way I did it. Go to your Ford dealer and buy some Ford Superduty shock mounts, part number E5TZ-18183-A They cost around $25 for the pair. Weld them directly to the frame. Kind of hard to see them in these pics, but here ya go.... (thats a 14" travel pro comp shock, front tire rubbing in the wheel well, still got travel to go. I set the shock with 7" shock exposed at ride height))   Found a good pic...

Yea Rob....3" body lift. I forgot to add that. Could you not just lower them 3" and weld them on if you dont have a BL? I beleive I've still got some room between the towers and the body.
You actually welded the shock towers on for me! And you built and welded the rear shocks mounts as well! Last edited by 4RunnerAdam; 09-20-2007 at 03:55 PM. |
