In one 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
weld the diffs on the other side of the springs is how you do it right, as to teh rest of it well theres a few issues there
look at steves original coil setup in his red thing, I reckon thats a better option

coil would be nice however i doubt that i could get TAC approve without an engineers report and as there are no engineers here it is a bit hard.

is springover allowed?
I reckon at the least you need one of them snake highsteer hub thingos and some kind of track bar thingos too, that seems to be where the arguments start

spring over is allowed most of the time if your application has the info that they want but is
subject to change, each application goes to a committee which decides what happens next. also it is significantly harder for people that live outside of darwin to get it all sorted.
i was hoping that there was a method to get the steering sorted out properly

Other than the rocky road kit completely stuffing up the Ackerman angle I am not sure it would be approvable given you are attaching it to bits that arent designed for steering loads

PM liv24b he was selling a snake racing high steer knuckle, But to be honest DON'T DO IT! I don't wish to step on people toes here, but it makes your car seriously unstable. I wouldn't do it on zook diffs, after watching a SPOA on 32s for a night, it was tipping pretty heavily on some angles i wasn't even flinching/worried on. Why are you needing this extra height? JMO

it wont be any higher then my SWB and as i dont drive sideways on hills
side angles wont be a problem.  it is more important here to be able to drive through seriously sloppy deep mud(have a look at my wet
season photos) and be able to drive over logs, stumps and other obstacles that are on basically flat ground. i want to go spring over
so i can get the necessary height and still not get the shit pounded out of me by corrugated roads.
