Sgtplatt Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 What shocks do I run with this set up?? I'm 85/road use. But want this thing to be fully capable off road. It has shocks, but one broke the lower eye/bushing, so I need to measure for length, but would like to have an idea what shock, and what website to buy em.. Thanks, Len Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandpaX Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I would say first you need to totally flex the sukka out without shocks, if you haven't already. Measure both sides of the truck while it sets there. So many inches compressed and so many inches extended. Rancho makes about every length of shock known to man up to 15 inches of travel. Go the thier catalog and find a unit that is close to the compressed/extended specs that was measured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgtplatt Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Without a fork lift, how do I totally tweak the suspension??? I got a hi lift, but no way to hook onto a tire, and whenever I use that thing, I think people are going to die....n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have one of those handy back your rig up one of those til the tire goes airborne. Just put it in low range and take your time... no need to end up on your side...
