Do you have a spring shop in the area?? If so bring both springs there. Figure out how much you want to lift it. Double that measurement and tell them to put that much arch in the spring. 1/2" tell them to put an inch of arch n the prings. should solve your problem. Shouldn't cost much either. We own a spring shop in Canada, I wouldnt charge you anything. It only takes about a minute to do.

contacted jakes and spoke with glen he said with the hd rear springs and his block I should be about level once cart is complete, I am not sure they were much help, he did suggest building longer shackles but to get it to sit level I would have to add 4" to my stock shackles and that seems a little squirly

that's not a bad idea, I will have to check around and see if I can find one.

Looks awesome so far. I like the purple suspension and axle. What color will the cart be?

not sure yet still playing with a couple different ideas, most likely primary colors will be hot rod black and purple with silver accents

Those wheels make a huge difference and still have enough well spaces to do some major suspension flexing. Nice work.
