My Email to E at Sky,

Ok tell Me more about this rear spring option You mentioned. I am interested. Details? Requirements?
Also can You send Me a few pictures of Your truck with the 3f springs installed. Please.
I checked out what You said about up travel Vs the rear springs compression. You are 100% correct.
Looks Like I will need to stiffen up the rear 63s (3 Leaf) or look into another options.


His Reply,

I just cut everything off of the frame, i was going to try a set of rear springs we had made that are shorter than the chevy 63's that are currently on Justin Reece's 4619 stock class ultra 4 2nd gen toyota.  I want to see how they sit with the 3f's to figure out what its going to take to make them level so we can offer a rear spring.  My 3f's are temporarily in there as far as the front hanger goes because i will be switching to 31.5" spring center with my new 8" wider front axle.  I don't have bumps in there yet because i will possible be using air bumps.

 These rear leaf springs are set up for the factory toyota spring bushing that yields an 18mm bolt, I am using our toyota leaf spring hanger kit to install them.
