Hey guys bought my first zook and they have tried to do an ruf conversion except my front shackles now fold up lol and when I unfold them and try and drive get mad death rattles at about 40 klms if I hit a bump just wondering what to do do I buy the 2 inch lifted front springs or is there an easy way to fix all this and keep the flex I have? Any help would be appreciated just chasing people's opinions and thoughts
Cheers dale

I was thinking castor wedges and moving the shackle mounts but that means I would also have extend the chassis yes?

You will need to space out the front spring hangers 75mm at bare minimum to make the rear springs work up there with stock length shackles.

Thanks guys but just wondering if its worth all the trouble straight up or do I just get 2" lifted front springs for now? And do it all when I make my front bar later on?
