Ok, after thinking about this I think I have discovered why the Inez shock bushings failed so quickly. These came with their 4/6 drop kit.
In that kit they send you Bell Tech 4" rear springs which your supposed to cut to get the 6" drop. I wanted a 4" drop so I did not cut the springs and
as I now recall I had to put a jack underneath the rear axle to get shocks connected because they are too short for a 4" drop. This became clear to me
after re-reading "moregrips" thread on
his build in which he stated that truck stood taller after changing to Bilstein shocks. Also have the airlift bags which
I could never put any air in with the Inez shocks because it made the truck ride horrible, now with the Bilstein shocks there much more up and down movement
so I can benefit from putting air into the bags to slow down that movement a bit.
