The springs themselves moved forward 1.5", and i moved both of the other hangers forward an extra 1/2"-1". I did it with anticipation of going to a 37" tire at some point.

Keep in mind that I also moved steering box at the same time. It will be required to move the box as well.

Yes, cut down a little more than an inch. You should cut them down to the point, that the spring goes flat, but not inverted.

Finally was able to get this thing out to wheel it. Spent a week in Moab. Ran Hells Revenge, Green Day, Blackout, and Lockjaw out in BFE. Then did some scenic stuff with the family. Hardly any pics. Took a couple dings to the body, but nothing too bad. Rig works well.

Oh, its got a 3rd row seat in it now too.

Scotty - Did you remove the 3rd leaf from the u-bolt flip plate side or from the axle side? Thanks!
