How did you lift the rear end up? Also what kind of issues are you having? Spinning? Bogging? Wheel hop?
The lower control arms that I have let the axle pivot, once u get your angle right. I had to drill holes in the plateand run a bolt threw it. Seems like it raised the rear bout 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch and stiffend it up. I was thinking about **** canning them and get ajustable upper and lower arms. I have a problem with spinning the tires right now...which im running a big block now and more power than its seen with the sbc I have had in it...when i ran small blocks it would set on its ass and hook good...wish I could get an idea of a combo to start with so i don't waste a bunch of money trying different things.
Hello
When you say you had to drill a hole.....What and were did you drill a hole. In the relocation bracket there should have already been a hole machined for the lower control arm. By chance is there any pics that you can post to get a better idea. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Thanks
