    I think he was hopping i would just sell it back to him and he could advertise it for what it is and get more money out of it. as soon as he saw it in the back of my truck though he was not a happy person. Like i said his problem not mine cuz im happy as hell..

    AAAAHHHHHHHH feck looks like they don't make a 8" lift spring for the 1500 biggest they do is 5".. So now im debating running a long travel leaf pack but not going spring under it's the same price as the deaver 6" 63's

    Either way the price is now close to $900 for rear springs.. So much for that being the cheap end of the truck.. Guess I could order the 5" springs and just block the rest of it like I have now though I was hopping to not go that route.

    what happened to 10" lift springs with pulled leaves?

    I would be interested to see what an LT leaf pack looks like over axle on that set up

    What about stacked springs, 3" and 6" but with different coil rates, sort of like progressive springs to lower a car.

    I figured 8" would be plenty but looks like 6" is the biggest I can get. Should still do the trick just fine and im going to build another track bar like I had before so if I have to blocks will work just fine. Probably going to run a 6"shackle as well.

    Thats the idea. but as we all know an idea and reality are rarely the same so im gonna do my best to make it a reality. When i was ordering them the guy was like are you sure you dont want 14's or 16's 18 is a lot and i told him yeah i want 18's if my girlfriends not scared why are you..

    not one you can buy on a chelf. i found that tool box in the back of a one ton truck and cut it down to fit in my tacoma like that..
