Rear Springs
#1
I am running a weaver spring from Bronco Graveyard and it is really stiff. I have 5.5 lift and have removed one leaf already. Any advice would be great! I am happy with the spring off road but not on the street, I have put about seven hundred pounds in the back and it dropped about a half of a inch. What are other people running?

I am a fan of the Wild Horses leafs. Suprised to hear what you are experiencing, if they are Deaver springs.

Sorry about the typo on Deaver, but anyway they are great just super stiff. Has anybody heard anything about JBG,s super flex springs? they look like the Deavers just a lot less expensive.

I got 4" rear springs from JBG last year and I was told they were Deaver Springs. Mine are a 5 leaf pack. These are part of their 3.5" lift (cheapest one on the market) and alot closer than BC, TBP or WHs. Shipping these days are killer. What do you have in the back that is 700 lbs? Tire gate, bumper, gas can???? We wanna see some pics!!:popc1:

Cam, I believe the reason why is b/c you may not have enuff "Posts" on this website. I think (and I am often wrong) you need atleast 15 posts, so start posting! BlazinChuck may chime in here and give you some direction. Don't sweat it b/c it happens to most Newbies that join this website. If that still does not help contact either BlazinChuck or JayT and they will help you out. Welcome to the Brotherhood!:beer:
