scorpioss Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 i have hangers and shackles in the rear. what shocks are u guys running out back and what size tires? im running stock style shocks and 275/55/20 and have a problem bottoming out either on the axle or bottoming out the shocks. it rubs the edge of the tire when i hit a bump too. any suggestions whould be great.my wife drives the truck everyday and i want it to be as smooth as possible without adding helper bags. i dont tow or carry anything ever exept my fat butt.

rivierakid55 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 im not awd but either way you cant run the stock sized shock with a 3.5 plus drop in the rear. might want to trim your bumpstops too if you havent already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpioss Posted June 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 ive trimmmed and removed the bracket on the bump stops and bolted them to the frame. im curios what shock ur running. i know i need new ones. i have the nitro drop shocks in the front now and monroe sensa trac in the rear. the front rides fine, its just the rear thats a problem.

rivierakid55 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 i did the same. bolted the bumpstop to the frame directly. nitro's all around for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rivierakid55 Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 what side bumpstop are you running from beltech in front 3/4 or the 1-1/2 i should have clarified. belltech bumpstops in rear, cut down one rib and bolted directly to frame. stockers up front cut down one rib.

faceliftedss Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 why is there not a hydrolic bumpstop availible? it would be a sick bolt on if it was a little firmer than the shocks i've often thought about trying to make some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
