[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 30816, member: 222"] If you're going to have custom springs made I would move the front shackles back, make the rear part of the spring much longer. The longer the spring, the lower the stress for a given amount of travel. I'd say make the front part longer too, but that is a bit more problematic. The '69 Chev 8s truck I crewed on once had been done this way. Wasn't the most ideal set-up, but it was class legal.
