Just a drawing of the shock mounts. I only used a piece of 1" square tubing in between but you could space them farther apart and make some brackets for stud type shock ends. If I would have been smart I would have just found some longer stud end shocks and used the old shock towers. The leafs and Revolvers will determin how much axle droop I can get and not the shocks. The shocks that I have on the front are way too long as they will be on the back also. I keep thinking that I can play with the spring packs and get better articulation someday.

knowing it is not 4WD related
Well after thinking about it maybe I could beef up the diodes in the alternator and use it for a high performance ignition coil

I think it all depends on what you put in front of it !!
Yeah.....sure it would be weak with an engine that produces heaps more torque than the standard engine !!
It also depends on how hard you drive it.....if ya keep on 'snapping' 2nd and 3rd then yeah....its gonna break quicker !!
