Are you sure those aren't southern sport mods in the pics you are looking at?

I think that's a southern sport mod. It's got Hoosier tires on it. Usmts is on AR tire.

safer maybe for the shock better idea no.you want the shock as close to the tire as safely possible .some mount the shocks in front of or behind the a-arm for clearance reasons but that puts the shock in more danger in the event of a crash.
