Shock clearance

I put this off for a long time but it had to be done.. Tried moving the the lower shock mounts outward to create clearance but could not get enough. So I notched the shock towers to allow the springs to nest when one side was at full bump and the other at full droop

Front Lower Shock Mounts

Moved the lower front mounts foreword .500" and outboard 1.000"




Helps with upper link tower clearance on the other side as well as full droop spring clearance on the shock towers.




Might move the shock out anther .500" but it'll be tight...

Power Steering Rez

Mounted the reservoir to the driver side shock tower. It's above the highest point in the steering system (orbital valve).







Tacked in until I pull the shock and have room to work.

More Sway

Mocked up the rear drop links, they are ~14" eye to eye


Full bump







The space the arm is in is not usable anyway













Full bump/droop drop link is near vertical to minimize side loading on the torsion arms




Near horizontal at full droop
