rear leaf springs?

[motor_head_53]

Ok I am looking for 2-3inch lift rear leaf springs perferable with like a twenty percent stiffer spring rate for a 88 runner. I am starting to sag, right after I put a trailer hitch on it.

If your looking for a stiffer spring with minimal lift any cheap (rough country, superlift, etc) spring will be good enough. You wont have very good flex but they do a excellant job and are very cheap if not free.

I would stay away from chevys, f150, mazda springs They are very soft and can sag with any amount of weight.

Hmmm, how can springs for a full size p/u "sag with any amount of weight" ?

I can load my Runner down and my Chevy's don't sag.

I dont run an overload leaf and If you put 20 lbs in the bed you can guess wehre you put it. :rofl:

Yeah a friend of mine has 63" Chevy's in the rear they sag alot! I was suprised, but I think he took the overload out.

You guys must be running the 2wd version - 3 leaves + overload ?
4wd version has 4 leaves + overload.

Skyjacker isn't really a good spring for wheelin' but, you can't get a spring that is good for hauling and wheelin' anyways. It's a decent, cheap spring that doesn't flex too bad. I've got Skyjacker and I use it to haul my quad around and one time while I was away my dad used it to pick up a ton of horse bedding and it doesn't sag. I still can't figure out why he didn't just use his F-350, but it was an interesting test.
