I dont know if making axle pivot drop brackets is a good idea? I thought about getting a set out the junk yard and extending them and bracing and gusseting the crap out of em, but then I keep thinking there's probably a reason I haven't seen anyone else do it. LOL.
I saw some one on here that made some themselves, but they didn't put a ton of effort into it, just threw some pieces together, welded, and then threw more beads over to "strengthen" it....wasn't received well by others, it was ugly, but
apparently it has held together...I'd probably put a lot more effort into it than he did, but I was kidding...don't have the time! At least, not now...
How much lift are you at in the front right now? How much more is it going up?
Front lift at the moment is 5" (4" coils and a 1" spacer). With moving to extended RA's and the F250 shock tower mod, I figured I should get a spring that is going to give me a compression and extension length that will compliment the previously mentioned mods...through some research, I went with a spring the provided the proper lift (or with a little extra in this case), provided a soft ride, and was flexy...
Whats your plan to keep camber under control if it is going higher?
The beam pivot points are as high as the cam bolt will let them go, so in theory, if I adjust them down with a longer spring on, it'll keep it close to good without having to adjust much...I have Moog adjustable camber/caster bushings to help dial it in again once it's done...call my uncle once it's done, put the truck on the alignment rack, and we'll be in business!
Bring on the weekend!!
