yeah i think so too.
it will look different that is fro sure
Ah I dont think so. who knows. lol

I know you are just argueing to argue now, because with a leaf srping suspension, your idea isnt solid...

theres many flaws in your theory and comparisons but I dont really care to try to explain with you because if I say black you clearly want to say white just to disagree with me.

I want you to prove me wrong. There is NO reason why an outboard shock setup wouldn't work and you have yet to say as to why they wouldn't work. Please enlighten us on why they wouldn't work.
Even if you want travel, the shocks are going to be the limiting factor, no matter where you put them. Then the leaf springs follow as the next item to limit travel. If you size your shocks properly, then it really wont matter where you put them. The outboard shocks however do give stability to body roll.

shocks are only so long maurice, as the axle moves in motion it moves further to the outside. if the shocks were on the outside then they would have to be really long. if you inboard them the shorter they would have to be for the most amount of travel from that length shock.
I dont plan to move them at all even if they rub. Next summer I will more than likely be going to coil overs and a 4 link in the rear.

I understand that shocks are only so long, but being outboard would allow for longer shocks and more travel out of the shock.
The only disadvantage I can see to outboard shock mounting would be the cutting a hole in the bed to make an upper mount since you want the shocks to be mounted anywhere between 10* and 15* off verticle.
