RUF + Reverse shackle

Post by ryna »

Hey everyone, im gonna do a RUF soon, i was wondering whether i should so a reverse shackle too. How much does it improve on-road comfort???

To do the reverse shackle all i need to do is weld perches onto the front of the chassis extention, and then put a shackle hanging off the rear spring mounts?

Is this correct? anyone with pics could u post them that would be very helpful.

I have spoa, stock springs. but i have 2" lifted springs aswell (full set)

So any suggestions other than what im gonna do??

How much does a RUF lift the front??

Reverse shackle, may need to do a search but doing reverse shackle makes tyre clearance more of an issue. eg as the spring compresses the diff moves the tyre back to the firewall.
