Yea, got a line on some wildhorses 3.5 rock crawler coils on the cheap, running duff 3.5 coils now, not the best flexing coil out there...wondering if it'd be worth the swap?

I like my 5.5" WH coils. The 3.5" coils are a tad softer than my 5.5's.

If they are cheap enough try them. You can always keep them for a 4 link rear setup later..........

Forget Duff....Just get some Cage coils. You'll prolly get better customer service. I've heard good things about Cage.

Yea that sounds good, the Duff ride real nice, and droop decant, but don't compress awesome. I'm running poly bushings and no wristed arm so i know i can't expect a ton but i'm not really thrilled with what i have now.

Aw come on. Try 3 different coils then get all mad at the solid axle say it flexes the same as a TTB and that your gonna Junk the solid 44 you have and go back to TTB.

haha i never said it flexed bad, a lot better than TTB and has taken more abuse than my old TTB would ever lived up to, but who doesn't like even MORE flex. I think i just need to rework the radius arms a little bit to get the most out of coils, i have another set at my house so hopefully over thanksgiving that'll get done.

if they are cheap, just pick em up. You can always sell them later for a little more than what you got them for and still win on the deal.
