Elminating bind in rear leaf setup

Post by onewontwo »

I'm in the middle of building my wristed arm and the thought occured to me about eliminating bind in the rear suspenion set-up. I've seen rockers around, particurly the on bcbroncos.com.
I'm just wondering if anyone has tried these or any other technique for the rear?

On a side note. I picked up an electric fan at the junkyard, a bigger rad, came short on the hydroboost set-up and an eb grille. I have arrangements to pick an eb grille up for $20. I'm excited for that. Along with the wristed arm, I'm also in the process of fully functional removeable doors.

for the rear rockers, i have talked to one guy who had them and then took them off, he said he hated them but didn't go into why. sounds like your modifying every bit of this rig, keep the pics coming

I think I'm going to relocate my shocks and build a new mount, something like an upside v. I'll get a longer shackle, I'm using stock lentgh now, and the removal of a leaf or possibly the overload.
