It seems from the lengths of the...
Kinda, but not really, there is upward and downward travel, so you have to get the truck in a situation that will fully extend the shock, which might not even be possible with an unloaded truck, but would think the coil spring will help in that regard.
Yes, I understand about the weights, but it will be several years before I could get final weights since I'm building the truck in an adventure rig. If the performance series shocks are available with adjustable damping, that will significantly help in terms of getting the valving right. I ran...
No I didn't, but I have no interest in an extended wait to get the shocks. Spoke with King today, interesting, they have zero knowledge of ever having built shocks for these trucks. Anyway, if I do a 3" body performance series king, they can ship in 6 weeks.
So it sounds like fox stopped making the LMTV specific shock, and it seemed like they were marketing on shock for both the front and rear. Aren't the A0 and A1 front and rear different? I have an A1R so the front is obviously different. Getting rid of the overly stiff, and noisy, front coilovers...
