Will someone please tell me what the numbers are for welding on the brackets for trail gear leaf springs 5" with the trail gear shackles? I have SAS'd already and still have stock rear mounts as of now. Didn't move my hanger forward but willing to if needed for best front leaf shackle angle. Just need to know where to weld the new mounts. I can't find crap on that. I hate to ask such a common question but sick of searching and no answers. Sorry

 

Wait.....what?

Which springs mount where what?

 

You are talking about the bushing tubes that go through the frame right .
The frame tubes go through the frame where the body mount bracket comes down on the side of the frame. Use a hole saw same size as the tubes. When your drilling through the frame theres a piece inside the frame thats kinda hard to get through. You'll figure it out its not to bad. Get the sheet metal location brackets . You just slip them over the frame and they show where to drill. Here they are.

This shows you where to drill through the frame in the first 10 seconds

 

I've already done the frame tubes. I've already completely solid axle swapped my 86 ifs. I need to know where to relocate the leaf spring mounts for trail gear 5" springs. I've read up the the front rear leaf spring mount needs to be moved forward and the rear shackle mount has to be moved back, and for the front leaf spring the front leaf spring hanger to be moved forward so much. Basically I'm just asking where the new mounts need to be welded based on the locations my mounts are now.

 

Why do they need to be moved??

Does the trail gear springs not come with this information ???

 

For the love of Pete, please tell me you're talking aboot rear springs.....?

 

Yes it would be nice to know just what the OP is trying to do.

I am not a lifted vehicle person but have installed a few over the years for others less mechanical.

Most don`t involve moving spring hangers to make it a bolt on job for the most.

 

Nevermind fellas you guys don't have a clue it seems. These 5" trail gear leaf springs don't just bolt up to stock mount locations. The mounts have to be relocated for the correct shackle angle. Thanks anyways haha

 

I bet if you looked on TG's site, they have instructions telling you where to locate the rear leaf spring hangers.

 

And you suck at supplying the information needed.

Front or rear?

 

This^^ X2. We have to know what you want to get an answer.

 

Speechless....lol

 

I think this question would be better asked over at Pirate4x4

 

They don't just bolt on????!?!?:!!

 

T-G springs are 57" long, front mount goes 6" forward of stock, rear mount goes ~ 3" behind old mount

 

Shhhhhhhhhh......you'll give our secrets away!!!!?!
