I'm confused why you have fitted shock extenders to extended shocks with matched springs? Surely that increases the chance of the shock bottoming out or the spring dislocating?

bottomed them out yet. I have spring location clamps so that keeps them in place. I have gone the extender
route to gain more axle droop. Some of the places I go its very easy to get a wheel in the air and lose traction.
I miss having a centre locking diff and a rear air locker but don't want to modify little Jim that far as its only for fun.

If the shocks are longer that only exacerbates the issue. Axle droop is useless if there is no pressure pushing the wheel down. You are joking about the centre locking diff bit, right?

Or did you mean an air locker that you can engage from inside?
