    Whoa... Stay away from those shocks... JUNK, If you buy that shock relocator kit, get the shocks somewhere else. I have them and do not like them at all!

    The shocks KP sells suck, they are way too soft and if you try to ride low and you will bottom out...

    HAHA ya, Small world, Anyhow agreeing 100% with marcos, These shocks are so soft that If I ride at the height my truck was when it was static dropped, I scrape on the littlest bumps. I think I may try the Summit sport trucks...

    Summit sport truck shocks are actually Doetsch shocks! Good buy IMO
