I'm in the process of ordering all my suspension upgrades with taxes coming to me soon. I have decided on my front suspension :

SAW T-Bars (bought already)
Sonoran Steel Rear IFS Truss
Idle Arm Brace
BJ Spacers (maybe - still doing research)

I'm trying to decide what to do with the rear suspension still. I have been thinking that I would just buy some shackles that would give me around .75-1.25" lift for the rear, but here lately I have been looking at some replacement leaf packs. I was looking at some 2" downey leaf packs. They are $200 for a set which isn't a bad price, but I'm wondering how well they would do me.

What do yall think?

 

Downey springs.......yeah good price, but don't expect them to set much higher if you only get the 2" and don't expect them to hold lift for more than 2yrs. They ride as ruff as the Rancho add-a-leaf's I had and the add-a-leafs are still holding lift after 15yrs!

 

I have 2" Tuff-Country aal, and I hate them. I am going to go with the Downey 2", with the pre-runner leaf you can get extra. More progressive rate, they say. I will try anything, besides who else offers such?

 

I have the 2" downeys and I am going to email them to see if adding their add a leaf will help me get more lift.

After adding a hidden hitch I am no longer happy with the lift.

I am happy with the lift for daily driving and all....... Maybe coming on here has gotten me lift envy?

If you go for the Downey's I would suggest the 3" springs. Maybe they will hold to 2" after they settle.

 

thats my delima. no one offers a rear spring lift that replaces the factory with 2inches except Downey and OME. I was thinking of Alcan or Deaver but my truck is a DD and thatvseems a litle much for the trails I take my truck on as of now.

Whar are some suggestionss then for some rear leafs that are bolt up, add lift, and arent overly expensive?

Would a 3" lift spring look bad with minimal lift in the front? Im trying to avoidcranking my t-bars to much. I dont want to go over 1" if possible.

Tell me what you think?
