Up to now i have done most of the usual things, Fixed everything that was wrong with it from the previous owner
Starting from the beginning:
First Step was to remove these obnoxious lift blocks in the rear.... the aluminum was all mauled and deformed. it was only a matter of time till that axle spun and messed some stuff up.
I picked up a set of s10 leafs and made a bastard pack from my top leaf and the entire s10 pack
Next I made some shackle relocation brackets.
With so much shackle and the combination of brackets it wanted to push the axle forward and rotate the pinion angle up. The pinion angle was actually right about perfect for when i did my SYE and used the CV Shaft. I did need to move the axle back though to keep my wheel clearance in the wheel well. So I drilled another hole in the top ubolt plate to accept the pin and same on the perch which gave me about 1.5in which was just about perfect.
