i don't see how you would mount the shocks if you don't have the weight on the springs. you will have to know your ride height. if you was using something like coil over shocks then you could set the frame the height you wonted and then adjust. the shocks after you put the body on but without any adjust. you'll probably be doing it over. :confused:
