So i'm running into some conflicting information regarding ruf on 1st gens and getting the axle pushed as far forward as i am hoping, maybe you can help since you are the only 1st gen i have found that actually looks like the front axle is close to where i want it...
- Did you use the factory shackle location (rear of the front springs)?
- Have you put your engine in yet, i'm curious to see how your shackle angle turns out after it is sitting with the drivetrain in it?
- Have you mounted your IFS steering box, and do you have pics of how far forward you had to move it?
- Would you forsee any issues with moving the front spring hanger another 1" further than you did, obviously it would make the shackle angle worse, in which case i would probably need to make a new mounting location for them, most likely right where the body mount is!!
- Not sure if you have tried twisting it up yet, but if so was there any tire contact with the front of the fender, under the turn signal where you cut the valance off? Does it look like there will be at full stuff?
Sorry for all the questions, i'm at a fork right now and i'm not sure which way i want to go and everything i am reading is pushing me back and forth.
Thanks.
