Chevy springs are some of the flexest that you can put on the rear. This is with a single shackle.

So what's so different between your rear springs and those of the OP?  If you have some kind of a flexible shackle/mount then I'm not as impressed, but otherwise they look great.

thats what I'm runnin, 3 leaf 63''chevys, 6'' shackles, Johnny Joint shackle mounts, daystar bushings with the greaseable 18mm bolts and 14'' shocks. flexes like a champ!

Johnny Joint shackle mounts would make any leaf spring look flexible.
