Re: Ryan's '96
They rub the bed floor like all the others... Im going to either autofab or solo shackles in the near future, they are only 1' drop and should take care of the rub issue.

Re: Ryan's '96
Do they limit your bump travel or articulation at all? I don't notice the rubbing all the time, more so on certain angles and inclines really. I have trimmed the first layer of sheet metal away, and that allows the shackle and deavers to clear without rubbing, but I think whenever they flex out it rubs because you do hear it from time to time.
I thought about going with extended hangers but I can't justify spending $575 from solo just yet... And I just got my ride height leveled finally. I might eventually switch to longer hangers and longer shackles - but in the mean time, I'm tossing up either cutting the body cross member or letting them hit...
If they don't affect travel numbers then hell I'll just leave it.

Re: Ryan's '96
Ill hear a skreach from time to time, usually when going over a bump offcenter where the body rolls from the left to right.

Re: Ryan's '96
Finally installed the SWP buckets and coilovers. Bumps will be in sometime next week. Install went well, had to cut a bunch of fender liner out and ditch the overflow/washer box.
Decided to go with hard line down the radius arm with braided lines at the radius arm pivot and caliper. Everything is converted to -3 from the factory hardline down to the caliper. I'll get it aligned this weekend and go shake it down.
