Rascal rears rears on front
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2011 6:19 pm
Hi all
I picked up an old rascal van the other night and have got the leafs off it already. I plan to do as title says, rascals on rear and my rears up front.
I have searched and not found much in the way of doing this and i have looked in the diy section at the rascal spring lift but still not 100%. Obviously the rascal spring are longer so from what i understand is some new mounts have to be made up?? Surly if you making new mounts up these could be made slightly lower than standard to give a bit more hight??
Also what do i need to do to mount my rears up front?? And then obviously ive then got to somehow lengthen the dampers. Is it ok to use say 2" box section to make up some new mounts to save buyin extended dampers?? Money's tight lol.
Oh At the moment i'm running 75 profiles with standard springs and a 2" body lift, my front springs are starting to bend the wrong way and the tyres rub very slightly when on full lock only when turning left lol.
Any pointers will be much appreciated. Pics tell a thousand words.
Cheers
Dave.
