the shocks look a little close to your truss. the axle is going to move rearword when the suspention compresses.

If it dont work, then i will redo it.  Its my first time messing with a custom suspension and im tryn to learn as i go.  May not be the best way but it's what i got lol..once we get our plasma cutter back working, i am going to clean up some of the excessive cuts with the torches my dad did..no complaints lol saved me some time
