Hey guys,
so, I raised my 1973 J-2500 with 4" hell creek leaf springs. This was before BJ's sold the "kit," so i had to make an educated guess as far as which shocks, but I think i got it right. Anyway, when installed the correct way, the tube of the shock hits the axle, so I had to flip it upside down to make it fit. Is there anything i can do to move the mount on the axle out or anything so that I can run the shocks the right way?
also, I was texting my flex yesterday with measurments and all that, and even though the fully extended length of my shocks is 26.25", I couldnt getmore than about 24 inches out of any side. Could something else be limiting it? like the fact that my springs arent broken in? Thanks guys
