Yeah, I asked about that. I tuned out after Alcan said $800 something for the front springs alone. I think it was 600 or so for the rears but I wasn't really listening at that point, haha. Plus I would still have to redo the hangers. Too spendy for my blood. What springs are you running?
Why not get another set of Alcans without obit eyes? I don't see TG stacking up against your Alcans.
I have wheeled with quite a few rigs with TG springs and as much as you guys hate to hear it.. ..they actually work very well. They flex pretty decent too.
I run 4" tg front spring and 63 chevys in the rear. Hate the front love the rear. The tg springs are really tall, I will be putting Alcan springs in the front when I get around to
Are your TG springs the HD version? Did you use a low profile front hanger? What year is your frame?
I am not objecting because they are TG. I never cared for the All Pro, Marlin, or TG spring options compared to Alcan. Just my opinion and the vote I made with my wallet for my 4Runner.
Non HD springs and there standard hanger. The frame is an 88
Here is RUF OME and AP rears. To date I have not ran a better set up and I have tried out a few different springs. I really like the 63" option, but don't like the length and hang up. Keep in mind I'm on 40" tires and my rear shocks are maxed out in length. Will be changing over to 14" soon. The AP rears are very hard to beat. If I had the extra cash I would buy sky's springs over any other spring on the market, but I am really happy with the OME RUF with the AP rears right now. Great rod manners and a lot of travel for leafs.
The tg springs are really tall
How much too high would you say you are? Are you happy with the ride? How is your shackle angle? I plan on using a low profile hanger, and since my frame is an 85 i should be netting less lift than your frame. Front frame cross member on an 85 is 1.5" or so higher off the ground, iirc.I would like to get a couple inches lower had to put a overload in the 63's to even it out. I have thought about changing to a low profile front hanger, just haven't messed with it yet.
I hate to be a bother, but if you have a chance can you post a pic of a side shot of your rig so I can see what your front end looks like? Thanks!
I don't have any pictures right now
I think I'm higher than that right now, haha. That's not bad. 35's right?
