yes it is possible to move either axle almost anywhere you want it to change the wheel base keeping in mind driveline angles with the right knowledge and fab tools. and yes lots of rigs are setup using rear coils (newer heeps have coils in the rear from the factory) but require the use of links which must be setup very precisely for the suspension to function correctly which in many cases is more difficult than setting up a leaf sprung suspension. linked suspensions also provide better approach and departure angles as well as eliminating axle wrap.Looking at this build, it got me wondering, using the coils is it possible to push the axle all the way to the end of the frame out front, and could you do the same on the rear using coils?
I was just wondering, if some people are always saying that they need more articulation, why not use coils on the back also, IF it can be done.
