my shocks are already at their ext. limit of 22" with add leafs and want to use some larger shackles,with this, will have a bit more flex so need a few inches larger cheap shocks, until i get the cash in 2 years to make a SAS and some 57-63 leafs springs on the rear.

:wabbit2: If your looking real low budget and your shocks are still good just extend your bottom shock mounts.

If your going to do a SAS this should be pretty simple if you have the needed skills and tools :jessica:
