Hey mike what size shackles did you switch to in the rear.
Not sure, I'll need to measure them. Their size is good but the angle is a bit too laid down. When I load my gear in the bed, the rear of the truck sits a bit too low compared to the front. I'll need to move the hangers forward maybe 1/2" eventually. Remember I've also removed 3 leafs from each rear pack so my rear is pretty soft, which I want.
since these 1st gens are soo light in the rear.
Eggsactly. That is why I played with the leaf configuration.
Also I am a little confused on the shock swap. How is it the 12" help ?
The issue was that when I did my Marlin lift kit it was on a weekend and we were out of short hoops but I wanted to run 14" front shocks. So I just mounted short hoops really high up on the frame and ran the 14" shocks. So it was wrong from the start and it took me all this time to put some 12s on.
Can you take a pic of how you put your sway bar on and does it have quick disconnects ?
That will have to wait for my Build Thread to catch up to that
I have bolts with large pins to disconnect the endlinks from the axle. WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE. By far the best mod I've done for street performance / daily driving experience.
