So has anybody made at set of longer lower arms for their lifted Expy's ?

I notice with the big lift the axle no longer is centered wondering about making a custom set to get it back in place.
Any ideas ???? :think::think:

Thanks

I did it for my jeep buggy. It has the same set up. Its kind of a u shape arm so I cut the arm in half got a 10in solid 1in pipe put it in the bottom side off the lower arms(inside the u) then I got a 2in x 2in square beam and cut it in half and put one of the sides that I cut on the top of the lower arms (the top of the u)for suport on top and buttom

So did everyone who lifted the Expy past 6" leave the rear axle forward ( shorten wheelbase) !!!

Not really happy with the look .....:bawl:
Need to get driveshaft built, but didn't want to proceed until rear axle in final spot. I guess it may have to stay there
