Lol

Even If you take up some of the drop with c-bushings to keep decent caster, what starts to happin with the coil spring? It starts to bow, right? Since it's tipped forward.

I see nothing good comming from 13 inches of lift with stock RA set up. I think the superlift 9''er drop brackets get a hair crazy.

Extend your radius arms and use the biggest degree c bushing you can find. See where they land on the frame distance back and height and make/buy a bracket from there. Profit.

Shave the Rad. Arm perches drop the rad arms, & go with 7Deg. C's
Reweld to get the proper caster. Extend your rqad arms with 2" DOM.

Should be good to go.

If your gonna cut you arms off make sure you do it somewhere your not gonna make a mess, remember, the first arm is the easiest, the second one however gets tricky.

Sorry I had to say it, I'm just sitting here drinkin and jammin to Slayer

Not 4 link. Extended radius arms. You make your stock style radius arms longer to give you better flex, and more importantly in your case to have a less steep angle on them when you have homogheyhuge lift.
