Probably not. To close to the axle and it need to have a pretty good offset to get the shock away from the springs.
The upsides.
1, gets your bottom]om mounts farther out and helps keep the, out off the dirt when your in the ruts.
2, helps control body sway
3, can get the top mount up into the wheel well making the shock more vertical and REALLY improving your geometry at full bump. Otherwise you will really need those BP's to combat the horrible angles at full bump. Also lets you fit a longer shock if you do a little sheetmetal work.
4, going with longer shocks won't reduce bed space.
The con's.
1, costs more up front, but cheaper than redoing it down the road when you discover that you poor geometry is cooking your 3" BP's.
