Just curious I just did the TT and Shackle lift.
I was suprised that the shackles only got me an inche. I was expecting more like two or so. Now I have the Torsion bars that are rated B cranked four times, and that also gave me about an inche. This sounds kind of weak. I do have the 31" BFG All Terrain TA/Ko's on it and over all now have 8.7 inches of ground clearance in the rear and about 10 in the front.
Should I increase the lift up front?
By the way the measurements from the ground to the top of the wheel wells ranged from 34.4 to 34.5"
Is this typical?
