I already posted pictures from this spot in my build thread the other day, but I'd like to add these here and point out whats going on with my suspension. Im running stock land cruiser coils and shocks in the rear with 285's. I got out and measured my shocks and found that the passenger side is 1.5" from full compression and the drivers side is 1.375" from full extension. My stock bumpstop isn't even close to touching the axle, which I need to address. My passenger side tire is about 1/8" away from rubbing the rear corner of the body (which I've already trimmed a lot, as well as rolling the fender lip under). So currently, my tires are limiting my up travel and I can't even use the last 1.25 to 1.5" of shock travel that I have available.
It makes me wonder why more people don't run extended travel land cruiser shocks. Unless you're running a body lift with 285's, you can't take advantage of these shocks full travel. And anyone running 315's is going to have even more up travel limitations and the resulting wasted shock travel.
