Rear shackle mount
« on: Sep 10, 2015, 04:13:50 PM »
I'm building a 92 single cab yoga planning on 5 inch lift with leafs,they say the shackle mount must be moved back.My question is how far and do you box the frame in where the new mounts going?

Location on frame depends on spring length used and weight place on rear of vehicle. Best to tack on and put weight into to check angle. Would want 15deg ish on new springs that aren't broken in but to each their own. I personally boxed frame above shackle as I can't imagine breaking out the welder to do shackles and not do at the same time. Maybe not a necessity but good to do.
