Snake racing have those plates that relocate the front diff forward
a bit. My question is.....how does this affect the rest of the set up?
ie. steering links etc.
I've got a LN106 Lux 2.8D leaf front. The only mods I've got is a
superior drag link and superior 2" shackles.

You will need to modify the drag link or piss it off and go cross over.
Why buy plates when you can just redrill the perch?

If your going to go x-over, put rears up front with longer shackles. Then you will have a more forward diff with good flex.

Thanks for the info. I want to avoid moding the truck too much.
I'll probly just drill the original spring perch and adjust the other
bits to suit. cheers Dave........
