I have a Ride Tech kit but IHC has a bolt on shock relocation stand alone kit without shocks. Anyone think of anything that would make this not work? I would just use my existing fox shocks but would allow moving them inboard away from the wheels. I was also working on the diff brace from bwoody which uses the same cross beam to bolt on so not sure if they will interfere with each other. Even if the diff brace bracket is long I could cut it and redrill the outer holes or even weld the 3 pieces together, given the rear axle operates without the brace modifying it shouldn't create a safety issue.
I feel like I'm going to be the guinea pig to get this answer lol.

What are the advantages to moving the shocks inboard? I see you have track bars bolted to the bottom of your springs, assuming those are to control spring wind up on hard acceleration .

That's a stock photo from IHC website as I haven't bought them yet but moving them in at least for me will allow a wider wheel/tire combo.
