Using similar dimension and mountings on my A Frame to Ruff's, and with rear springs up front on standard mounts/ shackles etc, my 1st Gen Lux wheelbase is 107".

Minor Hijack here SORRY
Tony, what height is your chassis rail from the ground. I read it once before but cant find the post again.

Want to solve an argument.

Cheers

Are you happy with this wheel base?

I know I don't drive a yota, but it might aswel be...

My wheelbase is 104 on the zook (on 36's) but I was thinking of moving the front diff forward again to make it about 110.

I guess my question is the same as Daves'.

I'm more than happy with my wheel base i was just curious to see what others were running and thought.
Only reson i may take the rear diff back another couple of ins is to correct the shackle angle i have in the rear allthogh its not a major issue at this point.
