Shock hoops?

So I've decided to rebuild my entire front end for summer but this time the haywire, ductape and JB weld arent being used

So I got a killer deal on some 12" Bilstein 5150's that I couldnt pass up. So this is going out to any of you guys that have bought shock hoops like trailgears... Do I purchase the 12 or 14" hoops? I have a 3" BL so cutting inner fenders shouldnt be a issue, but I only have a 2-3" suspension in the front. Im thinking that if I go with 12" Hoops Im going to bottom the shocks out? I have a pic of course.... tell me what you guys think i should buy (the shock isnt fully compressed, bout 1 more inch)

i would say get the 12" hoops, you can adjust them a little bit on the frame before you fully weld them.
might wanna ask the source trail gears Forum
