"The End's" 09 SAS re-build w/3-link and 1-tons

Frank's are still rubbing. I asked him about it when he was over last weekend and he said yup. His shocks are all rubbed up from the tires lol

 

Mine better now that i have the same wheels and tires as frank. Still rubs, but its alot better then it was.

 

From his stock 16s he had I thought. I have a very small rub mark on one of mine

 

If I was going to take a guess, I'd say it's because you're 2WD/open and don't quite hit the extremes of articulation as much as a 4WD with a locker does when it's got one wheel off the ground and still proceeding over the obstacle.

 

I can agree to that.

 

Do you think this would rub with chevy 63s sua?

 

Thread jacked sorry todd

 

^^^^
Yeah sorry Todd lol

 

Hmm. All this talk of rubbing the shocks has me re considering. Maybe ill do 12" inboard under the bed instead..

 

I'd definitely consider it. It is very easy to run a tube up top between the frame rails for the upper mounts to weld to.

 

Well I reckon I’m gonna send the 14s and ford towers back and get some 12s and some upper mounts

 

What wheels do you have. ? Same as Frank with offset. ?

 

Honestly I don’t know. They’re some motometal wheels. They were on the truck when I bought it. Don’t have a clue what the offset is.

 

You got 63s now or the all pro pack?

 

Still rocking the AP pack

 

The 12s up high inboard frame will do the same as you’d get on 63s. When setting it up loosen up both shackle bolts so it drops out fully and you get a better measurement.

 

what's wrong with rubbing shocks? lol my bilsteins haven't broken yet

 

My issue is that all this rubbing is going on with little 35s. Any bigger a tire and we’d be literally eating the shock.

 

"Little 35s" he says.

 

Yea I'll be going through the bed at that point. I don't need all that bed space
