Hi guys, I'm looking for specs to get my local steel man to crank and strengthen my rear arms for me. Does anyone here have any specs for lengths and angles to suit a D1 with a 3" spring lift?
Cheers,
Sean.

I just cranked mine 2" then braced the under side with some 10mm X 30mm plate worked well, still using them after 2 years..

So did you just put a bend in them that put the axle end 2" lower than stock? Or were there any other adjustments that had to be made?
I don't want to FUCK my arms.

To bend them you need to cut the arm as so the the diff doesnt get pulled in.
