pardon for the ignorance pero ano po ba ang ichura nito?

mas maganda po ba itong procedure ng pag lift againts extended shackles???

alin po ba mas maganda sa dalawa?

di po ba pag shacke ang inextend ay maaapektuhan ang load carrying capacity ng pick up?

errr pag lift blocks?

:freak:

A plain metal rectangular block placed in between the axle housing and leaf springs. This will enable lifting properties upto an extent that your current u-bolt lengths. Basically the cheapest way to lift a leaf sprung suspension. But not the best way when it comes to flexing and cargo holding.

Shackle lifts may offer ample additional leaf sprung exntesion but the downside is cargo holding when compressed. Springs are not fully utilized when doing this kind of lifting process. It may allow you to load extra cargo with the extended lift from shackles, but be wary about the primary or the madre spring to carry all the burden load.

Isa iyan sa mga sinaunang lifting techniques. Yes, it simply means a block stuffed between the axle and leaf spring pack to lift the vehicle.

Lift blocks are applicable only to spring over axle setup. it becomes a lowering block when attached to an axle over spring setup.

Yup. Style Chicano yang paggamit ng lowering block. hehehehe. Tapos gold na wire wheels.

Ang get up, slacks na may sando at suspenders. hehehehe. Ayos!

kung magdagdag ako ng leaf? tataas po sya?

parang SOA naman ang l200 ...tama po ba ako?

hindi SOA ang L200 pati na rin ang strada.

So it means na dagdag height yung lift blocks + SOA?

Kung dadagdag ka ng leaf additional cargo load but not lift it. Sa nipis ng leaf springs, hindi ito makakatulong magpataas. Unless, Kabitan mo ng isang set sa ibabaw ng original sets.

Springs under axle setups have no other way but to change shackles lengths or swap original sets to longer sets to accomodate lifting properties.
