So i have 6 inch rustys springs that have been on the car two years and are short and not broken in what so ever. Well my bushing were shot on my shackles and my springs and my shackle angle was so far forward it was slamming into the spring hanger boxes. I ordered and installed HD offroad no lift boxes. I decied it would be smart since the springs were off to cut and raise my shock mounts :banghead:. I dont weld and never have and my buddy seems to think that if i dont have everything perfectly setup how its gonna sit on the wheels so that the shock mounts are straight up and down they could cause the shocks to bind and snap. I've seen rigs running 6.5 inches with stock shock mounts, are they binding and breaking? I think he's being rediculous but what do I know? Btw I'm removing 1 or two of the bottom leaves and I'm running the shims that came with their kit so i may need to reshim if i drop lower than 6inch lift because im running a double cardan, so how am i supposed to know after the springs break in and settle if his precious perfect shock mounts will be straight up and down? I think im starting to confuse everyone at this point. When raising shock mounts is angle critical with my pinion pointed at my transfercase to eliminate bind?>
