Size leaf to get rid of blocks

[Rinny650]

I have a 6" lift on my truck and it has about a 4" block in the back on top of the factory bumpstop. What size leaf could I get to take the blocks out? Would I need to move the shackle forward? I had leaves on my chevy that were I think 4" lift and they fit in stock spring brackets

Deaver Spring should be able to hook you up, or try Skyjacker and Superlift.

I looked at that site and none of the clickable links are clicking

Dixon Bros. Racing sells Deaver, or check any of the mail order houses, they should be able to get you springs separately from one of the lift kit companies.

Hmm, the Deaver springs show 2.5" of lift, in combination with lift shackles that might get you what you want. They do show a 4" Bronco II spring but I don't know if that would fit.

The spring would be the same length and width on the B2, don't see any reason it would not work in a ranger.

So this right here would work? Combined with the stock bumpstop that should be about 6"s right?

I'd say 6 atleast maybe more as the BII would be a bit heavier in the rear end.

they may be getting the extra lift on the B2 from not flipping the shackles....just a thought.....

call or Email the guys at deaver and tell them what your after, They are super helpfull guys.http://www.deaverspring.com/


also national spring. http://www.nationalsprings.com/

with both being custom spring makers, be prepared for a host of questions .......weight, payload, what your going to be doing, whats your goal etc etc.


skyjackers 6 inch springs will only get you 4 inches of lift with out the blocks.

Okay I'll give both a call in the morning. Also on my spring pack, there is this wierd half leaf thing bolted in front of my blocks. It has a pin and u-bolt in front of the block and then another clamp at the front by the spring hanger
