instead of moving the hangers or using blocks, I had a new main leaf made for my skyjacker rear springs. It ended up requiring 3 new springs to work, but they gave me a modified military wrap which was nice for added strength

I had tried for a 3.5" stretch to go with the klune and 205, but when installed and on the ground, the springs ended up giving me 4". the right most line is stock, the middle line is what I was shooting for, and the rear line is what I got. those marks are the center of the hub.

this is the military wrap. A full wrap wouldnt fit in the hanger, so they did this for me.

the small tires dont show how much 4 inches really is. Mr sawzall is going to have to pay me a visit

before I cut the outer fender on the passenger side
these pictures dont really do it justice, its pretty far back, should really improve departure angles
|
|
|
drivers side cut. Hopefully this will be enuf. Still need to ramp it, to see how much inner I will have to cut.
|
|
|
passenger side is cleaner than the drivers
|

finally got a chance to road test it and get a full side shot. Looks wierd with the small tires, and they dont show the stretch as wellbut you get the idea.

with the 4D's back on. The rear sits a little low (its empty now, so will get worse with seat and gear, so i will prolly lift it a touch
|
|
|
have plenty of shock left all around, so I need to work out the bugs to maximize wheel travel.
|
|
|
the cage arms allow for a ton more stuff, so i will have to trim some more
|
|
|
lots to cut, inside and out. i will have a few inches of uptravel left, so I will have to bump stop it.
