The 3 inch springs are no good with the weight of the v6....you need to run at least a 4 in spring.

I'm running T-G 3" springs up front, but I only have a 4 cyl. Specs are T-G springs, Marlin spring hanger and shackles, no body lift, and 36" Swampers.








This '94 rig has the same front setup as me, but with 37" Pitbulls:






the cool this about the 3" springs is that the move the axle forward about 1.5". Combine that with the drop hanger, which moves things forward, and my front wheels moved forward 3" when I did my SAS. I could easily fit 37"s or 38"s without having to tub the firewall.
