Looking for input to everything I may need to do with installation of a James Duff 3.5" suspension "System B" with Heavy Duty Leaf springs instead of add-a-leafs.
http://www.jamesduff.com/eb/suspension_systems.html
It comes with:
3.5" Progressive Rate Coils,
6.25° 14 piece Bushing Kit,
heavy duty leaf springs,
Tracking Bar Drop Bracket,
U-Bolts, 4 Shocks & Boots
The website states no other changes are needed, however I have discovered reading some posts that this is not exactly true.
I have some vibration and have noticed my steering "floating" and pulling.
I recently installed 4 degree shims and was going to rebuild my rear driveshaft, however have learned that I may need to buy an extended driveshaft. I measured front of transfer case flange to front of rear differential flange = ~35".
I have not yet installed by drop bar bracket that came with the lift. I have read on some posts that in addition to the drop bar bracket I may need a drop pitman arm as well. In addition, I have read and received some input I may need an adjustable track bar.
Any insight/input from someone who has installed this type of system that could refer me to what components I may need and any helpful pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
