Hey guys....
My reasonoing was this... First and foremost I wanted to extend my wheelbase... By flipping the suspension arms I was able to gain an extra 1/4" on each set of lipped arms for a total wheelbase extension of 1/2". This made a huge impact in my high speed handling-stability-response!
Secondly I run pretty chopped body's that most leave the shocks exposed.... I was tired of destroying my pretty shocks everytime I took a 40mph roll
Sure I could have covered them up but I love the look
As you can see in the pics they were just asking to be destroyed in the previous setup
This took a bit of work to make work and alot of tuning and small little cant notice alterations to make work properly however when all is said and done it made a huge improvement in a veh IMO had little room left
This would not make sence for those of you off road bashers but if you are a pavement pounder like me, a carpet or asphalt racer, or just like things low and fast this is a hell of a mod if you take the time to get the tuning locked in.
Just my 2 cents
Thanks for the interest my friends and if there is any questions on the setup or the work involved to try it dont hesitate to ask!
