It likely would depend on the springs. I have read a couple things that offsetting the shocks going in opposite directions it provides better handling.

As for would it hurt, probably not, I guess it would depend on what springs you are using and if the wrap would cause issue.

I have seen several trucks that have been modified to have the shocks come straight up or go at an angle from outter of the axle to a location centered on the frame under the bed or even ones that go through the bed and are on a bar in the box.

What are you looking to do???

You asked a kind of specific question in a real general way.

What do you plan to do with the truck? Why are you even thinking about moving the shocks? What benefit are you thinking you will get by moving the shocks? What's your final outcome?

Give some of these answers and someone here will be able to provide a specific answer to what you are trying to do rather than a general broad answer which you obviously aren't looking for in the first place.
