Re: My '75 hilux build, rear spring problems
« Reply #150 on: Jul 19, 2010, 06:15:14 AM »
I am using 4" marlin springs in the back. They don't flex as well as long springs but My rear shackle is only a few inches from the tire. I like the great departure angle. I'm thinking I might just get another pair of springs and make a traction link and bump stops to save them. I never made bump stops in the back because I didn't think it was heavy enough back there to bottom out the springs.
