dshafts will almost definetally need to be lengthened. What steering pieces did you use? Just wondering how you got up to 8" steering correction in a way thats not crap.

I am running the 8" superlift on my k5. I extended brake lines dropped the crossmember down 1". Had to shim both axels Change lengths on driveshafts. I have yet to correct the steering linkage bcause of the 12 deg of shim that had to align the axels to the tcase

seriouslly. If you are having steering issues I doubt its the steering parts themselves.
