Trailing arm relocate

Does it make sense to raise the front mount location of the trailing arms by the same amount you shorten the springs when lowering?

Re: Trailing arm relocate

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE, I SAY YES AND I DID IT, IT WORKS GREAT ALL I DONE WAS TOOK THE BRACKET OFF AND TURNED IT OVER AND BOLTED THEM BACK WITH GRADE 8 BOLTS AND WASHERS, HAD TO DRILL 2 NEW HOLES BUT 4 OF THEM LINED UP PERFECT,AND IT MAKES ONE HECK OF A DIFFERANCE, IT PUT MY PINION ANGLES BACK ALOT CLOSER, AND MY TIRES WERE BACK CENTERD IN THE WHEEL WELL, IF YOU LOOK AT ANY OF THE AFTER MARKET CROSS MEMBERS THE MOUNTING POINT IS AT THE TOP, I THINK IT MAKES GOOD SENSE. VINCE.
