Hottrod81 01-07-2009, 07:23 PM Here's to a brilliant mind like yourself.
Can i fit 44's with just a 3" body lift? It has alot of room with the 24" wheels it has on it now. I want to mud in it real bad, so i wanna do it A.S.A.P I would appreciate some advice
toy86 01-07-2009, 08:32 PM i think you need to make your question more vague, there is just too much information for me to sift through I cant quite get it

FAUX X 4 01-08-2009, 10:07 AM You might try a tape measure. :flipoff2:
Alan11116 01-08-2009, 10:07 AM Measure from shock mount to shock mount with your springs fully flexed and compressed. At full flex get some shocks that are a touch longer so they aren't the limiting factor. At full compression make sure you still have a touch of shock shaft showing so they are limiting the compression. This can also be achieved with bump stops. Good luck.

I'm pretty sure most of us have figured out how to use a tape measure! :flipoff2:
01Tundra 01-09-2009, 09:49 AM I think you use the same method to figure out the driveshaft length also :evil:.........

Just count out the big ticks and little ticks with your toes, then when you run out of toes, scribe a line on the ground with a rock until an accurate length is found...... that's how they used to do it when squinting one eye and holding their hand up to it didn't work. :D
