Who has gone wiht the 3" Tg springs?

Ok so i have searched! with no results. who here has sased their rig with the 3" tg springs, i have a 3 inch BL (dont flam me) it give me awesome underbelly ground clearance because im using a drivetrain lift, and i dont waht my runner to be to tall so i was thinking the 3" springs would be nice. anyone here used them? how do you like them, flex wies and lift wise, and if you do do you have any pics?

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.
