Im savin for a 6inch zone lift and for the rear i really wanna do a shackle flip for the lift and have no block, i know with the stock shackle its around 4-5 inches of lift. My questions are Should i just grind of the rivets and drill new holes and use some grade 8 bolts through the frame or weld it? Will i have to get the rear pinion angle set or will i be ok leaving it alone?
The bolts alone will work. If you want to be super safe then the weld and bolts would be your best bet. Sent from my iPhone4 using Tapatalk
As long as you get good Grade 8 bolts it should be fine.. But like Bama said welding cant hurt... BTW Have fun with those rivets... lmao...
What's a plasma cutter do to 'em rivets? Customer pay worker at the chassis upfitter I worked at tried to use an air chisel to cut them rivets off one day. 3 hours later he got the grinder out.
