Rockfrog Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Not looking at SOA's just yet, really just want about 2" in the rear... If I add a second main leaf should I see about 1.5-2" and increased load capacity? Or should I be adding the shorter leaves in? I'm already adding longer shackles so the spring height is in addition to that. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I stuck in a long add-a-leaf and shackles...which gave me a total of almost exactly 3" after about 3 months of settling. It's still right there at +3". The add-a-leaf siad it'd lift it 2"...which it did...for the 3 months. The shackles added 1.5", so the extra leaf only netted 1.5" (2-3 years now).

87Warrior Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I just added a 2wd main to my 4wd pack. It added about 2" of lift. 1" was realized lift and the other made up for the 1" I lost due to the larger 8.8/perches. You can find more info in my 86 build thread. The biggest challenge for me was locating new anti friction pads to install in the new leaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
