    As you can see I need new bumpstops, but even fully stuffed I have an inch of shaft left(wink wink). drooped out though, the shock are a bit short though.

    Why did you relocate yours? How much lift are you running in the rear?

    Longer shackles were causing way too much droop for the rear shocks where they were. I've got 3.5-4" of lift probably

    I tried throwing a hint out there but sounded like everyone was busy... If there would have been interest I would have mentioned the King of Knik was going on but didn't want to go stepping on anyone's toes as Dan an Tom are the organizers and send out the invites.

    Hmm..... I wish my springs were the same length as you guys with 98-04 Tacos.
    I wouldn't swap them out then.

    I am sure I want about the same lift, 3-4" I want 33's for now which might mean bedside cutting. Other than that I have to plan this out until summer.

    So far I'm thinking relocate shocks to some sort of || or a slight /\ but not as steep. maybe a 20 degree slope off of vertical. And I still don't have a clue for leaf springs... Pickup springs will lift it but not as flexy, 63's are super flexy but hang kinda low on the frame where I would have to weld a new bracket.

    Homogeneous Linear second-order equations are important too...

    BUTTTT do you know the physics behind how they turn :plane:

    Matt are you taking about the like alpha +- i*beta stuff? Where if your quadratic has a complex solution? I can explain it its actually really straightforward how you plug it back in.

    Yeah, I think so. I went back and reread his notes and I'm working the homework problems so it makes more sense now.
