  1. Swapped to 8.8 axle, shocks are maxed out

    2000 2.5 2wd 5 speed Like the title states, a couple years ago. I swapped my 7.5 (code 86) with an 8.8 (code R7) out of an Fx4. When I did this, I also installed the Fx4 lift plates.

    Hey, I just joined because I'm trying to put together an extensive guide for a 302 swap. I haven't done it myself yet, but its in the plans for the winter project while I'm out of school.
