Shock hoop? We have coilover suspension. I would think that if the coilovers were long enough they would fit in the stock location. The Fabtech DL's do as do others with just the 6" lift. The problem here is the added 2" of lift and no1 has come out with a coilover for that yet.

besides that the rize coilover extensions are only meant to work with the factory coilovers.

bottom line- the lift is going to break before you use the kings to thier full potential, which means its a waste of money. go with bilstien or rancho

If you call some of shock companys they may offer longer shocks.I did find a place CA called Kaos PH#951-737-9682 that offer a tube style upper A-arm with a huge ball-joint.It can only be used with 4-1/2" back spaced wheels.The mount on a King Shock set-up can be used with any coil-over from the looks of it.You can make anything work,if you have the money to put in the truck.

if those blue adapter plates fit all fox shocks, then maybe you could just buy a longer shock and bolt the adapter on. does anyone know if they are removable?
