suspension

I am having dexter custom make some 4" drop axles upside down (saddles correctly installed) , new springs, brakes, to raise my 5er. was ready to spend about the same money on adding 6" of steel between frame and shackles but this will give me all new running gear. besides my axles are already on top of my axles so no gain in flipping and not enough gain in correct track. I am also increasing the axle weight rating as the 2004 cougars had marginal axles from the factory to begin with. current springs are about flat so think I will gain another inch + with springs that actually arch like they should.

just another option to add to the brainstorming
