    I have been running the Fox 2.0 11" travel Remote Reservoir shocks and I love them! I am using the poly bushings on the frame end and the spherical bearings on the axle end. To get them to fit just right in the mounts I had to use a couple of washers, and on the axle end I used these:

    Here is a shot of the SL shock next the the Fox:



    And once they were mounted:

    I like those shocks Nathan, especially the diff ends, thats what is needed at anything over 3" in the rear (either on its own or on top of the SL brackets)

    Has anyone thought about relocating the diff end shock mounts higher? IE XJ relocate style?

    My SL kit is due to arrive this week, so we are starting the new suspension! Finally!

    Does anyone have a set of adjustable rear arms they are using and can post pics?

    Oh yes! I was using the OME shocks and I loved them, but I wanted more travel. So I installed the SL shocks for a 2" gain, but with the HD coils and all the added weight I have, they just didn't control the rear like the OMEs. So I scored these used, had them re-valved and I love them!

    I am running them at 150psi.
