Rear shock location - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Okay, I'm struggling with how I should mount the rear shocks now that I've replaced my rear axle. The new style as everyone knows has the driver's side facing forward, and the passenger side facing rearward. My issue is that I don't think I can mount the passenger side aft because of my fuel tank. So, am I stuck just locating both shocks forward again?
