im slowly compiling parts to lift my truck and im not sure what springs i'd like to use, front and rear.

front: ill be using 4" tuff country brackets i picked up from a member. thinking about using some 6" skyjacker coils. looking for something flexy but not too soft (supercab, 4.0, winch & bumper hanging off the front).

rear: im between the 63" chevy's + bell tech and 3" trail gear yota leaves + bell techs. probably going to keep the stock block unless the rear is way higher than the front.

my goal ultimately will be to fit 35's under the ranger. there will be a 3" body lift in addition to the suspension lift. thoughts, ideas, opinions are welcome.

Any TTB spring will NEVER be too soft lol. Theyre always too stiff, thats the problem. Pretty much pick your flavor.

And while trail gear springs will work....ever hear of "the trail gear sag"

Id either go with the chevy leaves, or make a spring pack of your own ( like I did) using an explorer pack.

If youre doing all of this along with a 3" body lift, you shouldnt have a problem fitting 35's/

Dont forget to regear though.....
 
The Skyjacker 6" coils should work great for that setup.

Yes, you'll want to stick some 4.88 gears in for those 35s (or 5.13s even if it'll be seeing lots of offroad use).
 
already got the gears covered, 4.88's as you mentioned. just working on putting a lift together and wanted opinions from those who've lifted their trucks already, guess ill be going with stock 63's and bell techs. thanks guys... other opinions are still welcome.
