Status: offline 		I think you need to take alot of the angle out of your shocks...maybe move the bottom mount bracket on the A-arm more towards the bike about an inch or so?? Or some top-mount relocators...anyway you do it your chocks definitely need to be cose to straight up and down...My 2cents

Status: offline 		im having problem with the rear setup on axle angles, i wrote everything under custom lift problems in the forum. the shock angle will help i to be stiffer and wont sag as much, i hate sagging.

Status: offline 		yea solitude i remember, going pretty deep to. that was a fun spot.   rubicon 03 do u think i need to straighten up my shocks like red grizz said to help with the saggin. i thought it would be the other way around. my bad red grizz.   when u pull down on the back rack it just bounces like there is no shock just a spring.???   where exactly does the spacers go, in the spring, shock or what??  on my 12 inch lift the shocks are straight up and down and there stiff, and there mounted in the center of the a-arm.
