they're not as dangerous as they are bad for your leaf springs and axles (although they look janky as hell)Originally Posted by holycaveman
Around where I am from everything is sky high on blocks. I always was told they were dangerous until I watched all these rednecks around here beat the **** out of them.
on full size trucks it's not really a big deal. but on our little xj setups, it's an awful way to gain lift

And I can understand the money part.
I like it low myself. But that's probably my driving, LOL.

The AMC 20 was also known as the poor mans 9". It was a tough axle for its time. Only problem was the keyway on the hub. But upgrade to the 1 piece like mind and its dang near bulletproof.Originally Posted by UsmclovesXJ
