that on the bottle ?


i finally got mine down to cutting 1.41, 1,42 NA , after dialing in the 4 link numerous times with madman i had to find the sweet spot with the shocks. to bad the 60E finally died but it was expected after 6+ years of being beat on


how did you heat the coil ? i tried this just to run into problems the same day.



to the OP dont worry to much about the front, some cheap *** shocks will work just as good, i ran the 90/10s and they were useless to me. as for the rear end i wouldnt pull any leaf spring just add some cal tracs or smith bars whichever, clamp the leafs, get some good slicks, if youre not allowed to run a full slick try a radial slick, adjust air pressure around 18-22 i ran these before and with the high air pressure around 21-22 they worked better..


set your shocks up behind the axle, getting weight to shift in these trucks isnt easy, it takes horsepower to do so and to do it quick !

 

What do I need to to do to the trans yoke? Raise it the same amount that I drop the pinion?

 

Yo Skeet, what pinion angle are you running with the 4 link? Do you run a different angle on leaf spring suspensions?

 

Are you recommending to clamp front and rear of the leafs? I only did the front of the axle...



I'd imagine he doesn't get axle wrap and such an extreme change in pinion angle as those of us with stock leafsprings so probably doesn't point down as much as we need to.

 

So what shocks would you all recommend for the back?

 

Rancho or QA1s. Rancho is now made by calvert racing.
Both will do the job just as good.

 

I'm going to try out the Calvert racing adjustables relocated to the back. I'll be using the Qa1 adjustable shock mounts, so what length shock would I need to order? I've searched and can't come up with anything conclusive. If it matters, the rear is lowered 4", but I'm currently running shock extended mounts and stock length shocks. Thanks for any help.

 

Would those work on a 6/8 drop or what would i need? Btw can you pm some pics if your ride i want to get an idea of what my truck would look like with the 275/40 tires

 

Wondering this as well. I will be going with the calvert shocks as well

 

please post pics , mine is all stock with a flip kit anf caltrracks ,would it be good to move shock still
