    Great ..thought so .. just seems as though the axle and springs will hang off the shock when jacked up from the chassis

    I have a couple of Stage 1's and the front standard shock is too short in my opinion.
    If anyone has found a suitable front shock for the Stage 1 that doesn't top out with standard suspension please post the part no here.
