I have F150s and I have a lot of flex out of mine. Sometimes Ive seen chevys do better then sometimes ive seen fords do better. I gave about 4.5 inches of lift out of mine with dual shackles and no add a leafs.

if u are getting junkyard springs, each set will have had a different life on a different truck. so like lb said, differing degrees of flex

[jimbo74]

yes the rear toyota springs are longer than the front, thats why they provide the lift

[88toyta35s [OP]]

do you have to move anything to fit the rears up front
