6" lift

juGGernaut · Mar 28, 2006

for all of you that have have a 6" lift on your 78's & 79's, did you have to use aftermarket angel shims to correct your pinion angel on the rear? also, any one found out a way to get the bow out of the front coils with a 6 in. lift?

I cut the angle in the blocks on one of mine. As far as the front I do not know. I believe that someone on this site hade something that mounted under the spring to correct this problem.

i have a 4" lift with no drop brackets and used 7* c bushings with wild horses degreed rear radus arm bushings and sierra bronco 7* shims under the coils to correct the bow. are you using drop brackets or longer arms with the 6" coil? what springs are you using? also do you have a adjustable trac bar and/or drop trac bracket?

i have the trac bar bracket, the drop brackets and super flex 6" coils, http://broncograveyard.com/bronco/i-23210_...oils_6_inch.htm

once i put the tires back on it kinda straightened out, but still a little bowed forward.

I would drop the radius are brackets and use the 7 degree bushings. Trailmaster used to make 4" brops that are beefy. Here is some 3"ers http://broncograveyard.com/bronco/i-23587_...rackets__3_.htm
