HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So we cant get my rig up at all. We have tried a set of allpros. Then tonight we tried a set of 48" rears and still no luck. I dont know what to do. I really want to get this thing out but my springs are as flat as can be. I dont know what to do. I want to see if anyone has an idea on maybe a hybrid pack to build. Luke was thinking adding 2 more lower springs from another rear spring pack I have. If anyone has any ideas what to build let me know. Looking around waggies are expensive so if you have another idea let me know.

Here are a few pics of the RUF as it sits tonight. Any help would be great

overload and more leaf springs to get the lift to support the weight

Most ruf packs take 2 sets to make. Mine have 5 leaf and some others end up with 6. If you run just the stock rears it will sag badly and ride low

Yep, what he said ^^^, you need more leafs. Go on pirate and search RUF, all the info you could ever want on different RUF spring specs.

yes what they said. i run a 6 leaf ruf pack. 2 sets of first gen rears cut and staggered no overloads. soft, nice ride, about 4"s of lift, and they use up all of a 14" shock. dont forget bump stops

Sweet. By cut up you just mean pulled apart right?

Fiercefirstgen559 · « **Reply #6 on:** Jan 09, 2012, 01:29:54 PM »

Cut means that you shorten some of the leaves so the pack staggers down in length. I'll add a few pics of the ruf packs we have made in a few
