    I think instead of the 2x4 I’d get some pipe and cut spacers long enough to go over your bolts and put 1in the front hole and 1in the rear hole just snug and do away with the wood.the bolt spacers are structurally better too I think even after shock install a bolt with spacer in next hole behind shock will keep bolt from pinching shock so 1 on either side and you use those 2bolts.nice looking job thought,good stuff,I’ll be back in touch later

    Will this improve my rear end stability ? I have a 4/6 drop on a Silverado single cab 2005 and it’s softer than a jackrabbit on a grill in the middle of august.

    Can this be installed on an avalanche? I’m also doing a t56/ AWD conversion and will be using the front 4/5” coil over kit you’ve created. More than likely going with the 14 bolt semi-floating rear as well so I’d assume getting them welded on PRE install would be the best option or would mounting the 14 bolt semi-floating rear end in first be best?

    Did those top brackets end up hitting the bottom of the bed?

    • @atomic178
      @atomic178  Рік тому +1

      No, when welded level with the frame they have approximately 1" of space to the bed. On the passenger side you may need to remove or trim the heat shield if you need additional clearance.

    Would this be worth doing in a 550hp lifted 6 inches? Is it more for asthetics or would this make the ride quality better? Does it effect performance when getting on the gas in a truck tuned for higher torque? Any change to axle wrap?

    • @atomic178
      @atomic178  Рік тому +2

      Generally for performance something like this isnt needed on a lifted truck as the shock working angle gets better the higher the frame is from the axle. For aesthetic reasons it is fine, but not needed for performance. Good replacement shocks in the stock location is usually fine in that case. To fix axle wrap you really need traction bars.

    • @atomic178
      @atomic178  3 місяці тому

      The brackets are 1/4" thick but I think the tube wall on the axle and crossmember is closer to 1/8, so its a maybe depending on technique. I use a miller 255 or 252.

    Is your axle hitting the frame? Also for daily driving and some towing use, could you still keep the stock strut mounts and combine them to make the rear end never bottom out even under major load.

    • @atomic178
      @atomic178  Рік тому

      No, I have plenty of axle room, but traction bars also limit downtravel. Do you mean run 2 sets of shocks on the rear or did I misunderstand?

    Do you make a complete rear coil over kit for 03 Silverado SS so I can eliminate the leaf springs?

    • @atomic178
      @atomic178  2 роки тому

      No, just the shock relocation brackets at this time. Leaf springs are plenty capable and easy though. To eliminate them you would need to convert to a 3link or 4link style suspension which is not a simple task typically.

    Would you recommend using this kit on a lifted truck, or can you just get the right size viking shocks on a stock set up?

    • @atomic178
      @atomic178  Рік тому

      This kit is typically only for lowered performance trucks. Lifted trucks dont have as much of an issue with shock angle as the lowered ones do. Viking doesnt make exceptionally long shocks so stock height with the stock mounts is about it unless you weld on mounts to move the mounting closer together.
