you simply put the leaf springs ontop of the axles, just raises the body about 6 inches to give hieght in mud and to fit big tyres to get the diffs off the floor,
shakle lift aint too good with out spring over axle as the shackels dig into the mud.
your sposed to weld on spring perches to hold the leafs in correct postion but it doesnt really matter ill try get a pic of mine up.
yeh the 1.9td xud engine people put in, thats the engine im fitting to mine
