With 5.5" springs you're at 8"? I didn't think moving the coil bucket up above the arm like that made that much difference. But I guess it could be. I traded my 7.5" springs for 5.5" to get it lower. I was hoping to bet around 6" total. At that rate I'm going to need like 3" springs to be around 5.5". I'll put the 5" in and see where i'm at.

You did a great job, I hope mine turns out just as good.

 

Hey Gama, sorry to bug you again. Is there any way you can take one more measurement for me? How far apart are your arms at the top? From center of the ballistic joint to center of the ballistic joint at the cross member.

This would help me a ton in building my cross member. Thanks again in advance.

 

so im doin the same swap onlu raising the coil mounts 3 inches to gain more clearance that coupled w my 6.5 springs lookin to run 39.5s my question is your radius arm pics show two different sets and ho did you weld onthe cast? is it holding up i thought that cast would crack around the weld any help would be awesome thanks

 

Updates...
Fab a traction bar...
for the crossmember used 2"X2"X1/4".
