Ok those look to be the "performance" grade.

Since you reminded me about my new shocks... let's get together some night and I'll take you up on the offer of bending up some quick bro tubing based on your #'s.
And we can calculate spring rates based on Air shock pressures.
I'll buy some cheap whiskey!

i dont know, maybe not.  this is very confusing!  two shaft sizes for 2.0's also.  you got bigger ones, good. 

my shock pressure filler got broken last rausch trip   :(

Bigger shaft is always better. Right?

Anyone ever deal with this manufacturer before?
I was looking for 1330 yokes for the dana 300. But it looks like they make a 1350 high clearance yoke instead.
I wasn't planning to install 1350 yokes on the dana 300 (figured the stock output is already weak enough)
but this might be a good deal.
I have binding at the rear output if i let it fully droop out.
I've always had an output upgrade on the long to do list. But it most likely won't happen before KOH.
I'll just bring a spare.

Mike,
I've been running a center limit cable, with the plan to replace with a strap of the correct length after new shafts were made.
Actually have new strap and adjustable mount on the bench ( for about 1 year now)just looking to gain as much clearance as possible because my rear shaft is on the short side.

Good to know Gif
Thanks

Not that you asked, but the rear wheel "opening" looks too small.

Like the graphics!
