another question to chevy spring SWAPPERS. I did a measurement on moving it 11 inches like everyone says but ,like the front axle ,you would want to move it forward so when it flexes the shackle will throw it back. So I was thinking of moving it around 13 inches or 14 inches.My brother did moved it about 14inches on his first gen-runner and for some reason it still rubbed the lower rearend fender.But he did do a double shackle swap. When he moved it 14 inches it did look like it was a bit thrown forward and he still had problems clearing hi 35's x12.5w/ 4 in bs.He has about 8 inches of lift running fullsize front and a T100 rearend. My question to you ALL is if I move it 11 inches( which will look pretty well-centered), and a Single shackle, will I encounter the same problem as my brother's setup? Oh yeah, I'm running a d60 rear(64-65 wms) and d44 cutdown(wms same as rear).  will be running rs44044's in front also.Thanks
