Topic: front axle suspension

[jrock]

If I put my rears in front is there a way to keep the axle in the stock location? I mean useing like a block/plate.
I just don't have the money for a Hi Steer but want the Chevy + Rears suspention.

Im not sure but i think you can move the mount hole for the center pin on the spring perch  But if I were you I would waite for someone who knows about Toyodas for a definate answer

would be better off getting some type of stock lift up front you can however, make a hybrid front pack using parts of the rear leafs....

with the rears up front you are looking at spacing the axle 2" forward, that cant be corrected with a spring relocater plate safely....

[DTB]

you misspelled "suspension"


sorry that was just really bothering me......enough grammar tech for today

I think you redrill the locator holes in the spring perches on the axle and inch forward of stock (moving it back on the spring), then get an adjustable drag link and set it up for an inch shorter shouldn't that take care of the 2" w/stock steering?

Just an idea

That's what I thought I would have to do. But I don't want to buy a drag link. But I guess I can find one used pretty cheap.

I was going to make custom packs but it is the rear main leaf I want, right? And it is dangerous, damn. Any way to make it safe, like the drag link and 1in relocating plate?

They're not hard to find, the one I used to have I ended up just giving away. I'd try to find someone getting rid of an old mass-produced lift, like pro-comp or others and just grab the drag link. Could modify the stock one as well, i've seen a few write-ups on that as well.

he just moved his axle forward two inches last night and now its about 100 % better on flwx and what not

just use 44044 leafs on the front under your stock main front leaf

[jrock [OP]]

Under the main? Do you mean the one with the rings? Cut them off?
What is the 44044 do?
