looks like your shackle angle is off? maybe need longer springs? or relocate the shackle? i think there supposed to be angle back at ride height instead of forward?

Yeah, I ended up moving the rear shackles to the inner hole. I'm still playing around with different spring combinations and maybe a modified shackle. I live in Kaneohe also.

Nice maybe use
a longer shackle? But it looks like your suspension travel is pretty good!! One
day we should go for a short run, I know a place here
in Kaneohe, it's pretty fun for a few minutes

Yeah I'm still messing around with the suspension setup. The rear gets about 4 1/4in of travel but the front is around 3 in. The thing that bothers me is when side hilling the truck has a tendency to flip. Maybe I should play around with the weight distribution. Right now I'm making a drop bed but as soon as I'm done I would be down for a run. Hopefully during the week as weekends are bad for me.
