I was able to source rear springs which game me a good lift in the rear but I'm not happy about the new rear pinion angle. What has everyone else done to correct pinion angle?

Thanks!

Nothing at all
Been lifted over 135,000 miles and no problems
with higher lifts you can get a bracket from JBA but.......

awesome. thanks fella. being a x-ford mechanic I was worried. We had all sorts of problems with pinion angle in newer ford trucks. Even a 1.5" factory lift required a pinion angle shim.

Thanks!!

The 4 link rear on a KJ requires no pinion angle adjustment when lifting as it will adjust itself with OE arms back there.Big difference comparing a Fords rear leak springs to the KJ's coils and linked suspension is apples to ornages.
