The heighth at the impact bar is 18.5" it should be 16.5" according to the good book. Rebuilt trailing arms and new KYB GR2 shocks with original composite spring. Bolt lengths not changed. Anyone have any ideas?

ebo, great idea! I did that and it did drop a little. I then taped 200lbs of old lead sinkers to the bumper and that seems to have fixed the problem

Norsky, i'll try the shocks tomorrow, it's clam party today and I'll be shuckin' clams all day, at least until the beer kicks in the they all get put on the grill for steamers!
