Hi Guys ,

it has maybe already asked & answered on this forum ...

Is it possible to slide forward or backward the rear axle on the rear suspension , to shorten or lenghten the wheelbase a few inches , or are there some kind of pins on the spring blades to avoid this ?

Thanks ,

the Baron

there are pins on the springs, check out coloradok5.com for what is called zero rates.
