My lower control arms are about 1 inch shorter then jeep long arm kits.

Isuzu's have good rear axles and lots of travel that's how they do so well off road stock.

How are your shocks mounted, what their extended and compressed length, where are they mounted in relation to the arms?

With my sway/shocks/springs still connected I get 8 inches of down travel
I was a little off but still a damn sight better then a raptor.

I don't feel like removing the shocks and springs right now so i'm not sure how much up travel I have.








Just a straight drop

Measure from the top of the axle to the bump stop. Also measure and take a picture of the shocks at ride height and full droop.
