Can The Lippert Bolt-On Shock Kit # LC281281 Be Installed On The Inside Of The Frame
Question:
In the instructions it shows the shocks being mounted on the out side of the frame rail. Can you mount them on the inside of the frame rail instead just facing the spring plates to the inside? I have the drive shaft for the slide outs in the way.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, you can just flip the U-bolt mounting bracket around to have the hole for the Shocks of # LC281281 to connect to and then just mount the upper bracket on the inside of the frame as well. The only negative of doing this would be that the shocks aren't as close to the wheel to absorb the movement, but even then it's most likely not even a noticeable difference.
