Custom Ordering Shocks! Need Help
Hey guys,
Im looking to order some custom coilovers and rear shocks for my 2015,
I contacted King and they told me they can certainly make a custom pair for me.
He sent me an order form that asks for my desired Compressed and Extended lengths.
I have a 6in fabtech on the truck already and i want to bump it up another 1-2ins using coils and an add-a-leaf.
Now to my Question:
How do calculate what i want my compressed and extended lengths to be without actually taking my current coils and rear shocks off?
also where do you want your shocks to ride? dead center or high/low?
Should my extended length be taking with my suspension fully drooped?
thanks in advance guys
heres a picture of the truck for your enjoyment

I'm probably not much help, but if it was me not knowing much abut valving (which I don't) I'd be talking to a local shop. Order through them and you get professional advice and pay the same price anyway. They make money, you pay the same, and now you get advice of people that know WTF they're doing.

ordering custom shocks myself might be a little over my head...
