I just finished installing the shackle reversal kit on my 86 and so far I’m really impressed with the outcome but have some concerns I wanted to share on the forum to see if anyone has experienced these issues and can recommend fixes. For reference, I already had a 4” OME Heavy spring kit and 1” body lift installed. I bought it this way and was never too happy with the way the truck sat up front or rode. The tire was only 2.5” from the fender at the rear and with 35”s I thought it could use another inch of lift. 1) The reverse kit took care of both of those problems. I gained about an 1-1.5” in lift and it moved the axle about 2.5” towards the front of the truck. It looks so much better having the wheel centered in the fender. (This creates problem #1- when the axle moved forward the driveshaft now has splines showing. I intend to get a longer shaft if need be and don’t intend to do any wheeling until this is addressed but I have a long road trip coming up and wonder how much shaft is still engaged). 2- With the additional lift up front, now the rear is lower than the front and I need an 1-1.5” increase back there but already have the heavy springs and extended shackles. Other than those two issues I can say this is a big improvement over the original setup. It is so much smoother and absorbs bumps instead of directly the feedback to the steering wheel. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
