[QUOTE="bamared, post: 1228096, member: 24593"] This is all good points, and glad a few are interested. Im interested to see a few points also, 1. lift truck and let it hang to the point where the uca is touching the coil, and take a measurement of the shock shaft. 2. Measure the same area on a shock not installed. This would also give you a full extended length. Really, any reference point installed, to not installed would tell you how much you would need to limit it. This could also possibly be done inside the shock with the shim stack if i understand correctly. But losing compression distance is not good. I feel that it only makes sense to say this: the travel would be the same on the Gen1 and Gen2 as the control arm and spring are factory Gen1 parts, to the point just before it hits the coil spring. If you limited the travel to just this, problem solved completely. ***** ebay add- seen a Gen2 set today for 899.99 for a set of 4. hell of a deal even if someone just uses the rear. [/QUOTE]
