Just got the springs back from coating. I ended up turning him some custom bushings with customized inner sleeves on the lathe. Then machined in spiral grease grooves in the barrel. Now I just need to assemble them.
Sidenote- Why the hell does Deaver have two different bushing sizes for their...
First off I'd like to chime in like a bell. Lets not cry over spilled milk. The cow is on the moon, and JFK was assassinated by Mossad. WTC 7 fell at free fall speed into its own footprint because it was rigged to blow sometime in advance. Chevy 63" leaf springs are for people who haven't ridden...
Here is a set of Raptor Springs I’m doing for @2012SVTSC I ended up getting new bushings and making new inner sleeves too because I didn’t like how thin the Deaver inner sleeves were (0.075” wall thickness).
Thanks for asking man, so yes I have them made for me from Delrin in 2.5" with lips. I had to have them made because its IMPOSIBLE to find 2.5" with lips. I can do any width spring since all the other sizes are already available. Mine have been on for 2 years and have yet to wear through the...
Hello all, after a couple years of testing and a handful of people asking me about how I got my rear suspension to work so well after doing the Terra video, I've decided to offer one of my secrets to the public. No, these will not make your vehicle instantly work like a linked truck but it will...
Depends how its set up. I prefer the F-67 with 12" shackles over the frame. I also cut the bump bracket off my frame though to get more up travel. That being said my truck does sit low compared to some long travel trucks.
Oh and you will at least need an Idler arm because the stock ones are junk. Oh and the frame truss because they will bend if you don't add support between the rear pivot cradles.

Also, I HIGHLY recommend going spring under with F-67s and 12" shackles above the frame. its an easy 16-17 inches of travel and with the right shock tuning you'll be amazed at what they are capable of.
I am obviously very biased here but there are a few other things to take into consideration when comparing the kits. First off I wont say a bad word about JD as I think they are good dudes (although I've never met them), make good products, and are very knowledgeable. What I will say is that the...
I am not 100% sure and would need to look but I know we sell a specific king coilover for that kit. I don't remember if its exactly an off the shelf 8" stroke because the resi hose and misalignment spacing may be different on an off the shelf. Our stuff uses 1.250" spacers top and bottom.
