    I just said their front eyelet design sucks. The wrap spring is trapped between the main and the anti-wrap leaf so when the pack flattens out, the wrap leaf has no where to slide so it binds and the leafs bow and separate.
    For what I know from messing around with the set I had versus F67's, I like deavers a lot more. For what was posted here as the new price for 50t's, If I needed a burlier high arc pack I would run H70's.
    Sounds like 50t's are working good for you.

    keep in mind that your the one that asked a stupid ass question! and he didnt even flame ya for it he just stated that he hoped they were 2" bumps and you threw a hissy fit. get off the internet and go cycle the damn suspension and you would have gotten your answer. Or while your on the internet use that time to research how to properly set up bumps.

    What poly bump would you guys recommend for the front and rear. Think I'm going to run a rubber bump in the stock location on the front and rear for the time being. I want to get my truck out in the desert and dont feel like dropping 800 bucks on bumps right now.

    Working with this in the rear:

    I see what your saying.
    I had F-67's before, and the main F-67 Deaver leaf is the exact same size as the 50T pack main leaf. (so when I switched packs I changed nothing on my truck geometry, and I then realized they are the same size when I cycled it).
    To be honest dude, they are close to the same. I dont drive any faster if I use 50T or Deaver springs...lol.. The Deavers just wore out faster. Its all preference. But my truck is set up right.
    Thats a bad-ass 4-runner you have too!!
