not sure if the crow-vics are a little soft on your generation tracker but they are on a Grand-Vitara.. I used toyota 4-runner shocks that feel exactly like stock and provide more extension than the crown-vic shocks. They cost the same as the crown-vics (cheap)

Monroe part number #32248 (1990-1995 Toyota 4-Runner)

ends: S4/L3
compressed length: 12.875
extended length: 20.875

So with my 1.5" lift, I need a 1.5" longer shock right? Sounds like the CrownVic shocks are about perfect...or am I missing something?

Wouldn't you need longer brake lines and axle linkage then?

Also, I noticed Calmini sells an idler arm brace. Do I need one of them for 235/75 tires or is it more for the bigger 31" and 32" tires?
