I didn't take any pictures of the rear because it's just 225 lb monoleaf replacement springs with Viking double adjustable shocks. I did go with Keith's HD shackle kit which uses thick plates for the shackles which puts delrin bushings in the frame rail. I used his competition axle locator kit with a 2* wedge also. I went ahead and upgraded to 1/2" ubolts to hold it all together. Keith was able to supply those as well. It wasn't difficult to drill all those holes out to accept the larger ubolts either.
Here are the pictures.
This last one hopefully shows the increased camber on the front end. Remember, this is essentially only changing to UCAs that has caused this increase in camber. The other factors remained essentially the same.
I'm going to have to give the rear some time to settle before I know if I'm happy with it or not. I really wanted the rear to come down some more and instead it went up at least an inch. I guess my stock springs were more worn out than I though. I'm building a street car mainly so looks matter. Unless an over riding factor presents itself, I'll be changing the rear suspension regardless of how well the monoleafs work if they don't settle low enough for me. One positive from being raised is I don't scrape the exhaust coming in and out of the drive way like I did.
Well, that brings everyone that cares up to date. I'll get out to drive it and adjust everything as time allows. I'm anxious to see how it will handle.
Thanks
