Got up early this morning to start smoking a turkey, and was sitting here drinking my coffee, staring at my trucks rear end, thinking about how when i do the axle swap id sure love to get rid of those rock grabbing lower shock mounts. Anyone have any placement recommendations, objections, this will be done to an 8.8. Should i keep shocks in factory setup ie. One forward, one towards rear, or set it up like an explorer both to the rear. And upon moving the mounts from the bottom of the axle should i use a shorter shock, or move upper mount back to retain travel length. Or did ford know best and i should just keep it set up the same way.
