i've got every thing to do it but i want more opinions before i do it.i've never seen it used on a truck, just pics. does it ride good is the truck drivable afterwords on the street

how are you building it?  4link XX, 4 link IVI, 3 link wishbone, 3 link panhard, 5 link??  whats are you using for the spring material? rod ends, johnny joints, poly bushings? mines on jackstands as well :up:

im  going wish bone with complete yj springs im going to move the front spring hanger forward 14" to anchor the leaf spring the sprins look flexy each leaf is only       3\8"thick and ther are 12 in the pack so there is a lot to play with

[booger_weldz]

what are you using to mount the wishbone at the axle housing??  

i just frenched in a (cut in 1/2)set of mid 80's f250 springs to the bottom of my frame...

I think YJ springs would be WAY too soft, your truck would roll over and the 3 tires would still be on the ground.

heres some progress i made in the rain:D

[booger_weldz]

i hope it sits somewhat level, i have no fawkin clue what im doin, just cutting welding drinking:D i jacked up the axle and laden the sprinng with the vehicles weight and it seems static height will be near level--good guess:D
