« on: Sep 03, 2007, 09:09:07 PM »

the "buggy springs" are made for just that , a buggy. For a full body trail rig i would not recomend them. But if it is a buggy that is light weight they work great!!!

he's talking about all around the truck not just the rear. the rear of your rig is light...no prob...but the front has a lot more weight and is not ideal. When i picked up my ew front springs i asked about the "buggies" and even the guys at allpoo said that they would not recomend them for a full body rig.

JedRattle on here had the 3-inch front buggy springs on his 4runner.  He loved how low it sat, but it had almost no compression and would hit the bump stops all the time making the ride terrible on the street.  He ended up taking them off for some 4-inch Marlins (I think)
