Re: Got FLEX?

god you guys are making me want to sas my zr2

i have to ask how you guys like the leafs on a s10?

the two options im looking at both running 35x12.5x15 and dana30(im not a hardcore wheeler yet lol)

--running a mod'd BDS kit and coil setup

or

--sky fab x member
4044 rancho leafs
(build my own rear shackles and hangers?)

ive never done this kind of fabricating and worry about fubaring this up badly i can get dana30 4 link(96+) for 80 bux a piece so that doesnt bother me. I really like the coil look but seeing some of these trucks the leafs dont look so bad

Re: Got FLEX?

mines no zr2....

but yea coils really arent that much more work. plus you can screw the alignment up a little and still fix it without having to reweld things haha.
