I used the ford shock mounts, lowerd the upper bump stop mount about 1/2" and cut the lower bump stop mounts 1".
I'll try and take some travel measurements and post before and after pictures as well as some ramp flex pictures..

How much front flex are you getting to need that long of a shock? I could never max out mine back in the day

Oops i got confused... I have the 9012's in the rear and 9112 up front. the fronts are 26" fully extended and have 9 7/8" of travel... they are overkill big time for the front... But I didn't like the way the Toyota had the shocks "hiding" behind the A-arms. I think it looks much better this way being that you can now see this big beefy shock stuffed in the wheel-well.

I'll have more pictures later,

Wow, have given any thought to some ball joint spacers? I have 'em with my 4" kit and my stock 4" lift shocks work. Yours will work big time.

Body Damage is Cool
One less thing you gotta do when you throw a SFA under it as well. Looks good lots of flex on that rig.
