If the E bodies are any thing like the A bodies. The wheel, even frome the factory will not be centered in the well. Should be about an inch to far to the front of the well. There are ways to correct this but it is not going to help your wight ditribution any.

The best way I have seen is to put a spacer between the spring hanger and the frame.

I have allso hered of people drilling new holes in the spring perch but don't think that is a very good way to go.

Then there is cutting the front of the rear wheel well off. But that does not sound like some thing you would want to do.

Is the caltracs system the best way to get traction and stop wheel hop?
Has anyone tried the ground pounder shock system by just suspension?
I don't want to cut things up.
