|  Extending shocks
Does anyone know a way to extend the shocks without moving them, or completly changing the upper shaft to Bic pens??

Not really :? I am pretty sure they reach full extension in stock form - I don't see how you could make them longer without modifying them somehow. |

my jeep is actually lowered by triangulating the shocks and now im having trouble with them over extending all the time...so i returned the front shocks to stock and it still allows them to over extend because of the trimmign i did to the blue arm.

I have mine glued, and they still come apart. You will have to make some limiting straps for them. There are lots of how to's on the site.

go to Home Depot. Then, go to the isle witha ll the screws and rope. Towards the end of the isle (if you enter from the front) there will be a place with long threaded screws, that's what I used for mine, I cut it to the length I wanted and then epoxyed them in...no problems so far. The other thing you could do is get one of the larger screws and it will thread into the bottom of the shock mount...only thing is you'll have to drill out the upper part of the shock to fit over the new shaft cause it's so big....The way I got the original shafts out was tightened my drill on them and put it in reverse and jsut pulled....they came right out....hope this helps I can post a pic if you'd like...
