I have not found any Harney groups unfortunately.
I have had a couple experts tell me that the same chassis under different coaches may have different ride heights. This makes no sense to me. I have seen rear numbers as high as 12" for Safari's.
I really think the only safe way to go is to verify that the driveshaft angle is less than 3 degrees, which I read is what Dana recommends for their heavy duty drive shafts. (I built those while working my way through college.)
And to verify, even checking that the shock is near the middle of its travel like you recommend as a backup. Particularly for the front, as front ride height should affect driveshaft angle very little.
I suppose that is where I am on this. Wish there was more info availble, but we can figure it out.
Thank you for the help!
