Re: lift blocks
ok, i shoulda specified, front lift shackles on yjs that net over .25 IMHO are worth nothing. the tiny bit of extra length is useful if you have really soft and flexy springs, but they kill
approach angle
like nothing else.
Approach Angle
Starting from level ground, this is the degree of slope a vehicle can approach without scraping or hitting the front undercarriage. It's a great indication of the ability to navigate severe off-road terrain like boulders and logs. A short front overhang produces high angles of approach, thus increasing off-road ability.
