FSU FX4

ive heard of people trying to put 4wd shocks on a 2wd, and they couldnt. howd you do it? and how does it look?

they bolt up fine but must be taller were the coil goes because its to tall for the upper arm so now im going to get king shocks and tc upper arm so could sell shocks with or without level kit???

FSU FX4

Yea, i'm confused too. Type slower, think longer.

i installed set of fx4 stock shocks and leveling kit .... but it is to tall to get in alinghment specs. so i think i will remove the fx4 shocks and leveling kit and replace with the "king" shocks replacement shocks like the raptor shocks,coil over race shocks ... with the total chaos upper arm kit to help with alinghment problems.. was asking if anyone on here knew if the 4wd and 2wd shocks are same spec or diffrent??? but got no responce and talked to some other people. then found set of used kings for good deal. so if you would like to buy a set of brand new used fx4 stock gas shocks with hell bent leveling kit . and rear shocks let me know...

well yes they are different. when you go any buy some they ask you 4WD or 2WD.

While you can get 4WD shocks on a 2WD, when you combine it with a leveling kit it makes control arm angles go out of whack. Honestly I have no idea how you even got it bolted on there in the first place.

If I were to do it I would just use the 4WD shocks and not the leveling kit.
