Hey sl3ds@vior did dropping it down a hole help at all?
Know what size drill bit you used?
it raised the back up about an inch which should help with something
ahah as far as the bit i didnt have one the rite size so i had to ream it.
ahah as far as the bit i didnt have one the rite size so i had to ream it.Yeah I was also thinkin of drilling a hole
furthur down but scored a way nice set of aluminum drop brackets..
however I think theyre a little more of a pain in the a$$ than I thought
Im thinking since I have to drill new holes to mount
these up I need to get that track out from underneath
my tunnel a bit more.. that way I can take easier measurements.
Anyone put whole new brackets like this in?
Id assume measuring from the driveshaft
back to the stock drop bracket bolt, as that distance
should not change, and from the top inside of the
tunnel down to that same bolt with adding whatever lift I wanted??? Right?

just take off the old bracket. bolt the new drop bracket to your suspension lay it on the tunnel drill and rivit
Finished it all up lastnight
It really wasnt too bad with help from a couple buddies,
to hold the tape measures while I marked the holes
^ ^ Couldnt just lay the tunnel down on the brackets..ha
I ended up measuring from the driveshaft back to the stock bolt holes.
All in all, added 2 5/16" lift which didnt affect the approach angle too much,
or any other susp. parts.. And it looks pretty siick now
