I've run these 12" shocks on many a rig, including Lorena.


 
Go find the pic of Lorena crossed up in the ditch at GAP, them shocks will give me plenty of flex I need and want. But I MUST have shocks. Remember when I drive this beast with you at GMP, I bitched about the back end bouncing every time I hit a bump.
We have different driving styles. Mine needs shocks.
 
Found the pic... think the shocks will limit my flex?...

Now, it can TURN again!
 
The exhaust was clogged on Beans, so I dropped it out. Put Mulligan's old 20" Cherry bomb in it...

Not sure. Just ask for 2003 F150 4x4 rear with +2 lift. It'll give you 11.5" of usable travel.

The car quest ones are the best, I just bought these because of the price and convience of getting them that day. Wish I had waited.
 
If it is the same ones you advised me to get then it is Carquest part # gabriel g63715

That's them. You will need to modify the bushings in the "eyelet" since they are smaller than the yota ones.
 
SHOCKS!!!!

Looking good. So you started this story saying no wrenching until you have a place to do so. It appears you have found a surrogate garage, so will be seeing the digger out soon?
 
It was a trap. I took Tween in for maintenance today... And stayed. LOL. J jumped in and started in on it too. So we knocked out a few things. Still lots to do. But since I'm trying to get in to the shop next door... And in going to try to take this thing to RBD in three weeks. So I'm here
