Alright here is the deal. I have some off set springs that would move my front end 7 inches forward from the stock position. Now buy moving it so much forward what problem will i run into. I already have X over, so i know i will have to lengthen my drag link and well as driveline. Other then that will my sterring geometery be the same. WIll it be harder to turn the wheel or easier, or the same. ANyone go ahead and speak!

you will need to move your steering box forward other then that steering should not change at all, however sense your axle will be now mounted on the arched part of the spring it will through your caster and pinion angle WAY off. What the hell kinda springs are they? Do you have a shackle reversal? If you do having a spring with such a short front section will really bind up under twist.

What are the dimentions of the springs?
How long is the short end of the offset?
