Is there a way to mock all the weight or drop the drivetrain and the body back on?
Good luck with the rear!

With the weight of the motor and tranny, the shackles are angled back a little. Once all the weight is on there, they will probably be about 15 degrees. From the research I've done, Any more angle than that only really matters if you need alot of articulation, And I don't plan on wheeling it much. It will have a sway bar on the front.
