OK I have a set of 2" lowered shock mounts coming, should I also buy relocation cones?

Do not rock crawl but I like climbing hills, dirt piles etc plus never know what is in the puddles like a big hole or deep ruts

Still run the rear sway for now

 

Is your truck lifted?

And if you're running the sway still then definitely not

 

yeah, with the sway...no need. but you have seen a set, right? you can fab some up in no time. hb hb

 

Install your lowered mounts and run the truck. If your spring pops out, install cones.

 

2" one HD springs

Some things I can buy used cheaper then cost of steel and my time , cones sell cheap used,items like a safari basket are worth me fabbing

 

If you end up making/buying cones I would stay clear of the RTE ones. Normally RTE is top notch but they missed the mark on their cones; poor design. I have seen more springs fail to reseat using RTE cones than any other brand/design. The RTE cones are too long and not tapered enough. If the springs drops far enough and comes off the cone it is almost certain to not reseat. I would recommend an inverse cone that mounts on the axle. I run the QT ones and they've been great.

 

Fish that was my next question, so on the rear the ones on the axle are better if i need them?

 

I like the inverse(bottom) cones myself. I have a few different friends that run different variations of inverse cones and all like them.
Take a look at the RTE cones, how tall and not tapered they are. In my opinion a shorter cone that comes to a point gives the spring the best chance of relocating properly.
