ok im pretty much set on getting the marlin 4" trail flex fit for my truck as soon as i get the cash but i was just looking at all pros website and saw these super flex springs, anybody tried these out before i figure those springs and a little longer shackle some fender trimming i could fit 35's keep my truck low too and sounds like they flex nice... i just wanna check out all the options on leaf springs before i go drop 1600 on the trail flex kit, let me know thanks

Ive got Allpros springs on my 83 and they work great you might want to hit up Infernal, he works for Allpro offroad  :twocents:

hey twistedtoy does your buddys rig sit very high and how much fender did he have to cut off...

dizzydevil

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!!!

What you talking about J Im running buggy springs on the yellow truck...

dizzydevil

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)

my buddy trimmed an inch or two off the fenders and has a tube bed, he had 40 inch iroks on it but he downsized for 37 inch toyos..... i took a set of 89 toyota excab springs, re-arched them took out the over load and added two shortened chevy leaves  with 6 inch eye to eye shackles on my 84, holy cow they rock!! and they were free!!! i'll try to post a pic of a little flexin....
