I like what you've done with the place! May I inquire as to the specifics of the tires and rims you are running? That's about the closest I've seen to the look I want, but haven't seen the real deal in the stores, and looking online just doesn't give a clear pic of the outcome. Thanks! (You know that if you cut the wheel hard enough, and throw it in reverse as soon as all the momentum is gone, you don't really need brakes.) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

35 x 12 1/2 on 15" x 8". (little tires compared to today's rigs)
Tires are the Procomp XTerrains (holding up great, buy 3 get one free deal a few years ago)
Wheels are the cheepy Procomps. 2 1/2" backspacing.
I am running 1 1/2" wheel spacers though. Turns on a dime with no rubbing of the front springs. I have the "wimpy" narrow stock rear axle, so spacers back there to match. I will one day swap the rear to the 86+ style, but only if the price is right.

.................. Turns on a dime with no rubbing of the front springs. ....................... turns so good cause you are one of the few that has "basic cross-over" with the Y-arm <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> ZUK

You will find that if the trailer sat level or down just a bit in the front you will stop better.

I know. It's already an 11 inch drop. Looks like I need 13"?
Either way, I've got 1" bore MC, Dual Dia booster, big V6 calipers, Adj pressure valve for the rear to dump the LSPV. All I need is the LC rotors, then my brake issues should worry me no more.

Looks like it sits nice and level!
Thats the exact same way I have it set up.
Do you have any plans to install some spring retainers? Are you worried about the coil popping out when you flex it out? I have top and bottom retainers on mine. Just a bolt and some washers on each side through the mounts.
