Which coil size for 89 2wd stock Zuk Mod?
Hey everybody. I'm going to try the Zuk mod as an alternative to new leaf springs on my 89 2wd stock DLX. I rarely have it loaded up with more than 600 lbs of tools or debris. I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion for which length and rating the springs should be. There is a lot of info on here but not too much I could find for non-lifted 2wd. A little rake would be fine, but I am afraid that if I go with the 14" #125 it will be overly doodle-bugged. Any thoughts? Thanks. I am pumped to join this awesome community.

I just measured the gap into which the spring will go with the bed unloaded with the truck sitting on the ground and added 3 inches. I dont remember exactly how long mine came out to but it was a really easy mod and has added some much needed stiffness to my 90 pickup. Ten mins in the junkyard and $20. was well spent.
