Can't see the topic you've linked but I can't see there being any easier option than the axel relocation brackets that come with the likes of the V-Maxx and KW kits, some guys on here have fitted them on their driveway.

you will need to sign up on edition to see it.

basically it moves the stub axle up from its mounting point.

Hmm, good thinking but I think the rear beam is quite low as it is and bringing is 4-6 inches closer to the ground might bring other problems with it. Maybe not though.
Good idea for rear spacer and camber adjustment in one.
