Front End Lift

Post by Matt »

does anyone know of a front end lift other than the TB crank? I can fab up shackles and get add a leafs for the rear, or can you buy part of the TM 5'' lift? I know I can get the rear up no problem, its just that I dont want to fab up some new control arms, Id rather buy them. Thanks for the help.

If you're capable of fabbing up control arms, (even though you don't want to), I would think that you would be competent enough to fab up your own drop down bracketry to lower the stock a-arms, and differential, t-fer case and such -- then you could do a spring over in the rear.

Just an observation.
