[QUOTE="Mr Stubs, post: 1153294, member: 12968"] Well I got the springs mounted up. I put a 4.5" shackle in the front and a 5" shackle in the rear with a Marma joint. Now I have heard plenty of good and plenty of bad about that type of joint but I figured that I would give it a try. The Mazda leafs are prone to break so my reasoning was to help relieve the twisting on the main leaf. I put about 600lbs in the front to simulate the motor and winch and and 100lbs in the rear and ended up with a even front to back frame hight of 25". Not much up travel in this berry, I guess that I will have to keep the tire pressure low.
