as close to 90 degrees is the best that how shocks are made to work but it does not always work out like that.

| Post subject: | Mounting rear shocks |
Hi Guys Getting ready to mount my rear shocks and need some info. The rear mount location on frame won't work and the lower mount on the 2x3 arms won't work eather. So I am going to use double shear type mounts . Somewere I read that the shock should be 90 degrees from the lower arm with the arm at full upward travel. I have seen a lot of rear shocks leaning forward. Which is right??? Thanks MoblMec |

When the arm is all the way up the shock would be leaning forward to be at 90*. |
