    no idea what the measurement is eye to eye difference on those 2 packs. however any pack will start to sag and need to be re-arc'ed. so dont think switching from one to the other will solve your problem totally. i went through about 3 sets of leafs on the old truck. that is why i said fuck it and went with links.

    The eye-to-eye is the same. Its just sprung heavier to hold more weight and does not sag as fast as Deavers. Im sure it will sag eventually but not as fast as Deavers. That comes from people that have tried both Deaver and 50T

    According to AP, Baja's are 52-3/4 eye to eye.
    F67's are 61.5, but is that OAL or eye to eye? :confused:
    Still a little confused. Sorry guys.

    DSM fucking rocks! I told them the story and sent pix. They called king and got it all squared up. Sent the coilovers in yesterday. Hopefully have it all fixed and back by late next week...all on King's tab. Can't beat that. Just my time to pull the coils off.

    I need to ask. Do you even know how large a 2.5 bump is? You many wanna save some coin and get the 2.0 's. Just saying I've built some crazy ass shit before and never needed a 2.5 bump unleashed it is going on a monster of a vehicle. May wanna re-think that.

    How much benefit do you guys think I would see (suspension wise) from replacing my all pro plate bumper with winch for a tube style bumper with aluminum skids? Basically losing a hundred pounds off the front end of the truck.

    I would relocate the winch to the rear of the truck.

    What type of offroading would you be doing more of? Desert high speed or crawling around rocks?

    Honestly I do everything. That's why I ask, I'm hoping someone here has gone from a plate bumper to a tube bumper on an LT truck.

    Because if it is going to be a small improvement then I'll just keep the plate bumper and winch. If knocking a hundred pounds off the front of the truck is going to make a night and day difference when hauling ass then I'm interested.

    Yes I do. They are pretty big and for the most part I am over building my truck so I do not have to upgrade to much down the road.
