Its been a while since I have been on here last, but about a month and a half ago I fell into a deep hole while crossing back over a creek and blew the motor. Replaced it myself and all is good now. But what a pain in the ass that was.

Well I decided (for now at least) to just re-do what I had to begin with in the rear. I flipped the shackle in the rear with ruffstuff shackle mounts and home made 4" shackles. I ended up taking 2 leafs out of the springs. It is a lot smoother now and has a few more inches of uptravel. The only things that I need to address now are longer shackles (5" or 6") and move the pinion angle down, either with shims or just wait and get new spring perches and ubolts so i can flip the u bolts all in one shot.
When I took out the old springs, the centering pin on the passenger side had sheared off and was bent....
shackle mounts I made for the frame...
