WTD rear 110 shocks, 4" lift
Hi all

Broke the casings of both my rear shocks on Salisbury!

So am in need of x2 shocks n springs for rear of my 110 which is I think fitted with a 4" lift.?

Has any one got anything suitable lying around or a complete 2" lift?

Regards

Do those mounts just bolt in? Bolts included?

Kenny,

Big question is 'What do you have on the truck?' You can fit a 4" lift kit (just springs) without changing your shocks, or maybe it has just 2" extended travel shocks etc.

If you take them off and then measure them you will then know what they are.

Does the truck have extended bump stops or longer brake lines etc?

I had +4 on and 36" tyres. Hideous and ruined it. I hated getting in and out of it even.

I've decided to keep it to 4" lift as I quite like it as it is! So need springs n shocks to suit Smile 2011 Santorini Black USW XS.
