Installing these Downey 2" springs really kick my butt, but it was worth it!

Before:


After:



I love the look but bj spacers are coming soon.

A few questions i have are when the springs were installed but the shocks wernt on yet, with the axle at full extension (on lift) the shocks were still about 2 inches short of the mounts. is this right? I got SkyJacker shocks for a 2 inch lift. Im kind of concerned that when wheelin my shocks are going to be what stops the extinsion or flex of the axle, and dont want to rip the shock apart.

and hows this shackle angle? WabFab 5" at ride height.




Thanks guys.

Extending the shock is okay, it wont hurt it. Over compressing it is what would kill it...

flex it out and see what happens or call downey and ask them what they think.....

If I can remember correctly I had to use longer shocks on my downey 2" springs

Thanks guys. Ill see how it flexes, what about the shackle angle? any thing to worry about?

Angle works perfectly fine.

Like stated earlier dont over compress the shock or youll be destroying them. Thats what I would look out for and if you have a problem with that then your gonna need to add in a different bump stop to stop it from happening

Dasuprawolf

I should flex it and see if it comes in contact with the bump stop before the shock bottoms out right?

I suppose thats pretty obvious.

yup or simply place a phone call to Downey and see what they say
