So I'm out there staring at my front, thinking about lifts and all that jazz...
Running BJs lift shackles in the front (well, I have them anyways)..does the rear *have* to be a fixed point? Could one run the stock shackles at the rear of the front spring? They fit. It would drop the rear of the spring down about 2" if done so..now, of course, instead of your springs moving in an arc, they would *want* to move like a swing, torwards the rear (like having a shackle-rear setup) only more so. Could that be 'fixed' with a simple trackbar setup? According to the handy lil mini-book from Four Wheeler mag I have laying around, extending shackle height on behind the axle shackles leads to more caster. Only problem I can see is that they probally wouldn't last too long, being just stamped steel. But I heard chevy ones are thicker. Just thinking, wondering if it's possible. I'm not going to do this of course
Should I stop thinking? hahahha. don't answer that. Explain why this can't work. If anything, for the exercise in suspension theory.
