just put cones on the back (fed up with springs popping out)

to get the cone in place i jacked up the rear with a hi lift to get the spring to detach.

mean while i had bought procomp plus 4 inch shocks for the rear double shock mounts.

so i thought id put them on first

the result is shown in the picture

how far will it travell?????

theres a lowered top shock mount

and no at that point the shock still had travel and the wheel was still firmly on the floor



yes it is a tmax jack

had lots of use putting my springs back in


hopefully no more
