Never seen the shock thing your working with, may possibly be because they were two short. You also have a coil spacer up front that looks like its maybe an inch but its under your stock isolator so its prolly adding 1.5 inches, you also prolly have taller coils on there. The back looks like a new pack or possible an add a leaf.
