Or buy 2.5 shocks and not worry about it since the spacers slide into the shock eyes

When I have famous people money like you do, I’ll buy 2.5’s. But until then, that’s a cool tool.

Don’t give up, you’ll get there one day

I’ll help, I have no experience with them but would love to learn so I have an idea when I do mine

Goatbilt has this tool that makes it much easier to install 2.0 shocks. https://goatbuilt.com/product/shock-spacer-install-tool/

They are 2.5. Also, these are not new ones. I took them off and had them rebuilt by Wizzo. So I have all the hardware to put them back on.

Correction - I have 2.0 shocks not 2.5.

I was wondering... I coudnt see Kirk putting 2.5s on that rig

Well, shocks didn't ship last week. I will pick them up over the Christmas weekend. And, the installation will be a little slower as well. I may need to order new springs.

From what I read and have confirmed with the shock guru (Wizzo) is that the bottom springs should be 2" longer than the shock. Currently, both top and bottoms are the same length on all shocks. And, I might as well go through the process of verifying the spring rates.

I would listen to the guy. Your body will appreciate it when it is done.

Is there a such thing a tuning air shocks?

Not to hijack chucks thread, but yes. You can change rebound and compression valving, oil thickness and volume, and air pressure. I redid my rears recently and there's a post or two on my build thread

[Trailabite]

Thanks to those that offerd, but I'm not going to need any nitrogen. They were already charged when I picked them up.

Did you supply them your specs?

Nothing specific. This guy Wizzo  is the man that knows all there is about coilovers. He does whatever he does to the shock itself and then he works with you to determine the correct spring rates and then some fine tuning  to finish it off.

I bought a set of those little suckers.  They help out quite a bit…for us 2.0 poor people
