Topic: Moving axle forward?

[91 ex-cab]

Is there a way to move my axle forward without cutting off the hanger? rear's up front iv'e heard I really wanna keep it low and run 38's without them hammering my firewall.

You could drill your spring perch but I would say in order to run 38's you will also need to use RUF

which also means you might have to remount your steering box for binding issues with your high steer

cut the fire wall back a bit and reweld in a new piece.  that gives great clearance on low rigs.

I was thinking of doing something like that but i'm selling it anyways.
