Thread: Will lowering leaf spring hanger be ok?

Tweet

Did I miss something? BTD wanted to raise the truck. I think it was mis-spoken. Adding a block would lower it even more. How about moving the perches to the top of the axle. Did I misread something? I know old timer's disease is creeping up on me.

Nope Nitro, you didn't misread it.

I don't have much experience with raising things up. Never got into things that needed it.

Pinion angle would change whether you're going up or down on one end only.

I didn't intend to confuse anyone.

if you relocate the springs to over the axle you would probably gain 4-5 inches, all you need for that is new perches for the springs and new u-bolts
