for us guys running rear leaf springs, or front for that matter, this chart is a very valuable tool. I've been using to choose leaf spings for more rear stretch. just to clarify the chart, the a-b is the foward portion of the leaf springs, this is the part that will determine stretch. littlekeylime.com/MrN/mrnimages/leaf_springs.png |

Nice. I was just talking earlier about messing with my rear springs for flex. I don't need a stretch tho.
this will be handy when trying to make up bastard packs.

Just how much flex is needed to get a BroncoII to get on and off a tow trailer? :-)

The chevy 64's are super flexy when set up right but that is mainly for full size rig with 110 wheel base.

I picked Zach's brain about them last time we were at SL, since he has run them on a Jeep before. I decided I did not want to mess with redoing the front hangers, mainly because I'm still not 100% on what I'll end up with out back, leafs, coils or airshocks. |
