    Hey guys as you. Can see I have TC 4x4 Lt and I need to build my rear end. Please post pictures and any information you have if you are running either leaf pack. I know that the difference between the two is specifically height. I need pics and help!

    Yes and no. Choosing a leaf pack just on arch and not for your specific truck is no bueno.

    Each leaf pack is built with a specific leaf spring rate in mind The ride height or arch the springs give you will be different on a reg cab, extra cab, double cab. Running dual spares, fuel cell, tube work, and other gear in the rear will also affect what spring you choose.

    Jeff at Deaver Spring could explain this a lot more.

    you do not want the f55 pack. i ran a variety of different packs on my old truck and the f55 were the quickest to be replaced. they're just not a well performing pack in terms of load capacity (truck weight, spare tires, gear) and ride. they sit very flat compared to f67 or comprable packs

    f67s paired with a 12" shackle is a tried and true set up. that's where you'll want to start and then make changes from there based on your needs

    some pics for ya. let me know if you need more. great looking truck btw

    Hey thanks a lot dude that helps, and those pictures above and below are awesome too! I'm absolulty going to go with at least the 67 pack then. Now do I need to notch my frame if I run 12 inch shackles above? Also is there a different shackle option besides side frame or over the Frame like yours? And can I run from the oem shackle perch? Thanks again dude and your set up is sick! Mine is a huge work in progress but after my rear end comes the cage, seats, dash, and more haha
