So there have been a few different ways people on here have raised their rear mounts. Here is my way. I will be able to adjust my roll center by shimming the pickup points on the mount. I will also be able to adjust camber separate of the roll center. I have a few more braces to make before it is all done.

Like I said I have not added the rest of the braces. I am putting the heims in double shear and adding a couple more braces. It should be fine. But I am no engineer, just a high school graduate.

The only thing that kept me from going to college was high school......so I went to the school of hard knocks for 40 odd years. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

After working in various types of construction (planes & boats & trains), like to think have a good eye for how good engineers do what they do. I know you're not done so I fingered I'd get my .02 in before hand...not being critical, tho my form of attempting to help can be seen as so. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
