What are we talking here? Coils on a 4 link vs leaf springs or stock configurations with coils vs leafs.

Well the most simple is leafs and you can get great flex from them.

will this be needed to stay street friendly or a trail only rig?    It would be much easier if you just ask all these questions in ONE THREAD

yes leaf front and rear, links are to unstable for daily driver use. I've had a long arm cherokee with no sway bars, windy roads sucked. and my runner has soft rear coils and it will lift a front tire up if you crank it to hard. kinda sucks
