Topic: Mil. wrap?

[Numijunior]

I'm thinking about running a set of 2wd toyota rear springs in the front of my 4runner. However the springs dont have any mil wrap like the 4wd ones that are commonly used.  Opinions?

You can make your own......

why 2wd springs instead of 4wd?

dont,  they arent strong enough

use 4wd  rears

they arent strong enough how?


i will be using a 2wd rear pack for my rears up front, but it will have otehr leaves added in from a 4x4 front pack and possibly a short add a leaf

i will be using a 2wd rear pack for my rears up front, but it will have other leaves added in from a 4x4 front pack and possibly a short add a leaf

i would rather be a weiner than the alternative... they bleed for a week and dont die, like 12 times a year!


yeah, the 2wd pack has 2 leafs in it.... although i have seen some with like 5 leaves.... so my 2wd rear pack had 2 leaves and an overload


the 2wds also dont have a military wrap, but they do have the anti-wrap where the the second leaf wraps halfway up the main on one side

I have a set of 2wd truck springs that I am adding a few leaves to.  I am using 2wd drive ones because thats the only kind of 51" rears I could find cheap.  I just wanna know if I'm setting myself up for an epic fail by using them.

Does anyone know if the 2wd v.s. 4wd 51" springs will change axles location or anything?  I havent set up my High steer or shock hoops yet and I figure if there is no difference I'll run this til they break or I stumble onto a 4wd set.

Dirtoy, how do I make mil wrap?

[jimbo74]

you cant just make the military wrap. it either has it already or it doesnt

[DTB]

you can't just make the military wrap.

Sounds like a challenge to me!
