Re: SiX-fo SuBuRbAn

got the rear springs mounted (started -lots more holes to drill-) wheelbase is going to be 117.5 which should work out because I plan on using the longer long fleet rear wheelwells.
the slip yoke has 1.5 inches showing, and 4.5 inserted, which I hope is not too much???

pic # 3 shows the rear shock, how do I figure out where the shock should be mounted?
these are the longer shocks that came with the 4 inch lifted truck, right now they are extended all the way, and the frame has no weight on it, I will be able to set them at a 25 degree angle, they were 30 degrees on the 88 sub...
do I just place them and punch a hole where they fit, or do I need to collapse them a bit , and then punch the mount hole?
