I have a 71 fj40 with a custom 4" Block lift. Blocks welded to frame under every leaf spring mount. Was wanting to do a SOA but not sure what springs to use. Thinking about OME/BDS/whatever for the extra lift to fit 40's maybe 44's and taking off the blocks, anybody got any goods or bads on leaving these on. Also I have heard of people using springs from different model cruisers in the rear or even flipping springs to extend the wheel base.
I live in NC and have lots of thick red clay and deep holes so I need somthing big and strong.
Not so near future conversions:
Lockers (front to be welded), Front Disc, ps, Advanced Adapters Orion, Dana 60's, Engine and trans (SM420) still looking <-- I like that 4 letter word (FORD) and gotta have that 4:20 .
Thanks for any advice
