It would take ALOT of work to raise my front hanger, I was hoping to do it all with the springs and frenching the rear hanger, my shackle angle is pretty good now, just dont have the time to cut and redo the front stuff right now, maybe later but then it will prolly require cutting and turning my axle also, lots of work.......
i actually have to do exactly what you're doing (kinda forgot on that first post.) but the truck i got was way to tall. i lowered the rear 6 inches from where it was by taking out a bunch of rear leaves (PO used 3/4 ton chevy 63s and didn't take out any springs so now i'm only running the 3, maybe 4 can't remember, longest springs i have about 6 in between the otp of my tire and the top of the wheel well. and on the front i'm going to do RUF with maybe 4 springs (2 longest factory, overload and a cherokee 6 in lift spring.) i'm hoping for 4 inches of lift above stock. i'm only running 35s but also not trimming. hope that gives you an idea of the lift with that setup.
