could you imagine it with the RCD shackle?

 

prob be the same height w/o the block.. not sure if i wanna keep the block in or not.. might too tall for some trails...lol

i need to talk to ryanrebel and see what his measurements are and ask if he has any flopping tendencies on the trails

 

that sounds like a good thing to know........

when you get that thing out on the trails i will have to come up and go ride with ya...be a spotter....

 

screw spotting i wanna be driving right behind him!

 

go ahead....i will ride since i dont take my truck....

 

BS there is a pic floatin around of you crawlin behind my house somwhere...



anyway.. your guys opinion on if it too tall with the blocks or not?

 

awwwwwww yes but there were no tree's involved! they can cause MAJOR harm..

i would leave the blocks in there....wont hurt anything....but you should wait and see were your front is when you get it done before you decide for sure on leaving them or taking them out...

 

front is adjustable... ride height is gonna be determined my wherever i weld the C-Bucket on. shootin for about a 1" rake

 

ahhhhhhh......i see....

 

i vote to remove them.

you can always install them if you think its too short later. but its freaking tall, its so tall that some 49s would prolly fit under there.

 

49's i doubt it.......gotta consider the bedsides......now if he flares them or gets flared fenders like the front, then maybe 44's but not with stock bedsides....

 

ok so i exaggerated a bit. 44s

 

^^^yea 5" or so

 

i say when you get it back in the garage, we put the 37's back on the rear, and jack the front up till its level. then decide if you want to keep the blocks or not.
remember you will have ALOT more flex now, front and rear. gonna need more room for the tires on up-travel.

if we do it during the DAYLIGHT, we could get a decent pic of you standin next to it also

 

just might do that here in a bit..

 

get on it!

 

I would put it at max lift. Seriously.

You'll regret it later man, I know I would. But I ride in fl, all there is is FLAT mud... No hills to worry about.

I would do shackle and block, then make it sit 1" lower in the front!!! THat will be badass.

Right now, your rear is probably 5" higher than me. I have 12" gap in the rear right now. From top of tire to top of fender. that was with the bfg at's, it hasn't changed much with the mud terrains


edit: I'm 43" from ground to top of fender flare fully loaded down.

 

my RCD measure on the rear was 46 1/2". just also remembered that ill have a lil bit more stability since im gonna be runnin a 15x12 rim w/ bout 3.5" BS

just did the ***** joints so i can give my buddy his tool back. my mom needs the garage on sat night so i may just wait to pull it in then

 

Yes

 

just finally got to seeing this thread. Lookn good Scott. cant wait to see it done, and after seeing this and Zacks, i cant wait to get going on mine.

 

What did you do to address pinion angle of the rear end.

 

the chevy leafs came with angle shims on them.. front coils just arrived

 

^^sweet! now all you need is your arms and you can start!

 

pimpin man i wanna see it done

 

have you hacked everythin off the front end yet?
