hmmm...

my current shocks are 16.50"C/26.88"E
my 5150s are 15.89"C/25.91"E

i figure my top mounts will lower the shock about 1", and i currently have about 7" of shaft showing at ride height. I think it'll be ok.

Were yours 10" or 12" travel?

12'' travel. im anticipating having long arms in the futrue so i wanted mostly down travel any ways so it worked out. im bump stopped enough so i wont bottom the shock out so al is good

ah ok. Mine are 10" travel so the bodies are much shorter than yours. With the BPEs should give me plenty of travel on 4.5"

It's a new admin building for a county Water & Sewer Dept. I do Structural Engineering and this is one of mine.

Mixture of concrete walls, open web joists, slab on metal deck, and Lt Gage framing, with some masonry and steel thrown in.
