@kodiakisland. Curious what your thoughts are on this?

Don’t put bits and pieces from the tires into your shocks. They tend to get stuck in the valving holes and cause improper compression. For some strange reasons the rubber particles seem to move more freely during rebound. Interesting phenomenon to say the least.

This thread reminds me… I was going to make some brackets to drop the steering rack instead of putting in a hoss 3.0 rack. Those tierod angles at full droop are getting big.

Diff Rise is the new diff drop. Skip UFDU, mount shinny aluminum M190 on the hood. Not just correcting geometry but improving it. How do you connect CVs to wheels you ask? Just have turn offroad do it. If they can make the ultimate bolt-on portals without any negatives they can do this. Inverted...

Not really. Both our plots achieve the same level of understanding by the viewer. Just to be clear. There is a general acceptance that a diff drop corrects geometry back to OEM. This is not true. That is the reason for the original posts and plots. There is a nuance that those who are...

A small diff drop (1”) keeps plunge in check (<10 mm) and is no concern. It will reduce CV angles across the board, both at droop and ride height. This is real not koolaid.

Have you ever seen Chevy chase griswold Christmas? Not enough lights IMO.

Minivan CG in for-aft direction for oem sas is 51.6” behind front axle and 64.5” in front of rear axle. I have put Jack stands very near your location in pics.

A 1” diff drop is fine. Even 1.5” is probably ok. Just not a fan since there is diminishing returns with minimal gain. The other two posts are just a long winded way of saying that. I would go a different route.

For OEM style CVs, the axles are free to move (not restrained) along their axis (longitudinally). This allows for some misalignment along CV axis as the wheel moves up and down during suspension cycling. For example, consider the imaginary distance from wheel hub center to the half shaft...

Adding this here. A diff drop doesn’t really maintain oem geometry. It only helps improve CV half shaft angles at full shock extended length. I would keep the extended shock length under 24.3” and run the ufdu. Better solution for 37-38s if you are pushing things and has a much improved...

Almost impressive… I do highly recommend running tierod supports. The bigger the better. Might still be able to track down some massive btoncbuster variants if you hurry. Last thing you wanna do is break a tierod out there… 😳 Seriously tho, I am curious what you come up with on the 4-link...

Rear clearance not required. https://share.google/8MRrUi62xhhpkLBPE

I am just giving you a hard time. 😁

Them are fightin words. 🤣 just kidding. There are some pretty capable Bronco builds out there. There is even a guy that forgot to mount his rear portals and it turned out pretty good. Who would have thunk that. @SierraBronco...

I would remove bolts from LCA (bottom of link).
