Anyone know the eye to eye extended length of the 1000-5 self-leveling rear shocks?

I'll get it to you Saturday when I get home if you haven't got it before then. I've got the shocks laying on the bench.

What are you up to anyway? You've been hiding too long.

Waiting to ride with you guys.
I am a recluse during whitetail season. I have a couple 150"+ guys and a very mature drop tine that are getting my full attention until February 10th.

I wasn't overly impressed with it but maybe since I had the aftermarket A-arms that changed the angle, that could have been a factor.

If the shocks were more vertical such as using highlifter i they might work better.
What I've found is the self-leveling works better than standard. Premium shock outshine both but the machine will sag more under heavy load. I have Elkas and without a lift I cannot carry as much payload as the self-leveling shocks. Mind you - I did not try to adjust the preload for that.
