Re: Killer

I can see why flipping the mounts help, but why flip the whole arm?

Helps with pinion alignment?

Re: Killer

There is no need to flip the arm really, I just felt like it since I will be building new ones anyway I just wanted to see what it would do
I mean it may give you a hair more lift, but you still have to run pinion shims or rotate the axle on the perches to correct the pinon angle

Re: Killer

I may not get anything done tomorrow, as I am going to Fort Worth to meet ShanesChevys & get my sweet 67 GMC grill

But be warned, I have a few ideas up my sleeve & may not be using the grill on my truck

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.
