This is my 3rd H2 - i lifted the 1st two myself. this i bought already lifted. i need to replace front shocks. can i just remove them ,measure and match ??

 

You lifted 2 H2's by yourself, and need help measuring shocks?

 

Hummerz - i bought complete kits for others(2")...this is one i got 4 years ago stored for most time and now want to get rid of but one corner has fallen - i dont know what was originally put on it other than its fab-tech and cheap. i figure since it has to be 5-6" it doesnt mater as a long as i buy 2 shocks. this is probably dumb question but do they make air bag suspension that tall ? my experience is just installing complete kits/ not much skill -

 

torsion only - I should have known

 

I know this is going to sound elementary to most people.

If you know it's a Fabtech lift, go to the Fabtech website and see what shocks they use on their H2 lift kits.
Or go one step farther and call Fabtech and see what shocks they recommend and/or the collapsed and extended shock length.

 

HOLY SHEET, that took a few minutes and I even took the time cut and paste all of the info!
Man, these people who need to be spoon fed everything. I blame the parents...
