    Yea but you mod them to make them fit and use only a couple of the leafs otherwise they don't flex at all and ride like bricks.

    I'm sure will some toying around they will work.

    But still, why not just 3 link it while your there.

    I agree I probably would 3 link it, but who knows maybe they'll work out really well. Everyone that has those springs seem to really like them

    I'm sure eventually it will be 3 link. I had to try and save some money somewhere. 2.5 smooth bodies with compression adjusters will help out a lot with the differences in weight I'll be carrying. Plus I'm running the bigger 4 leaf 63 pack, no overload but I added a smaller first leaf for a total of 5. I think they will do just fine, Brian seems to love his 63s and he drives that pig everywhere loaded down.


    Edit: the 4 leaf are the 3/4 ton version

    And this was the Biran I was referring to, he doesn't use a RTT but I won't use one all the time. He still loads that thing down and drives to Moab/Az etc.

    What did you mean by mod them to make them fit @Blackdawg
