Sure saw a lot of expedition rigs the last few days--at least a couple hundred--from well-built Xterras to Earthroamers. Everyone but me headed to Overland Expo! LOL.

Took the trailer out of storage today, and moved it to my new place. First time hooked up after getting the lift. Went from slightly tongue down to slightly tongue up. Originally I was going to do a spring over, but I think that'll give me too much height. Looks like I'll have someone make me a small shackle lift.

Septu, are you planning bigger tires? If so, I'd wait on the shackles til the bigger tires are installed. .....they might make the spring over possible.

But then the trailer will also get 35s... so whatever advantage I get height wise will be lost.

If that trailer is m416 based, you can use older CJ shackles. Daystar makes a 1.5" pair that work great.
