Default Looking for info on spring perches

SOMEWHERE,,, I sure can't remember where I saw it tho,,,

A new kind of rear leaf spring perch that added 2 inches of lift to your spring pack. It might have even been adjustable. It was really interesting reading and now when I tried to find it again I seem to have lost or deleted the link.

Does anyone know what I am talking about? This is a weld on perch that gave ya lift from the perch with no blocks. And like I said it MIGHT have been somewhat adjustable.

Old heads losin it man

If I remember right,, it was constructed somehow to help with the spring wrap that goes with "block" style lifts.

Man,,, I can't believe this.. CRS syndrome today

tnt customs makes u bolt eliminators that can have lift built into them.

they still add spring wrap though, the further the axle tube is away from the leaf spring, the more wrap you get no matter how you dice it.
