WTB 79-88 Toy Rear Leaf Springs

Post by **willhf1011** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 1:16 pm

I know we've got a lot of Toy guys here. Anyone have 2 rear leaf packs from a pre 88 truck? I believe theyre 47 inchers.

What are you trying to do by the way?? 83 springs have slightly more arch than 84-88, not much though.

I'm considering running them in the front of my jeep, I'm looking for the offset center pin with a short side that is shorter than mine currently is. I believe the spacing on the 47's is like 20-27 or 21-26. I'd run them long side backwards to get around 4 inches of stretch and then the short side would bring my approach angle in 2 inches.

Stock rear yota springs are 20.5 on the front half. I run 37's and I think my tires are flush with the front of the springs. Keep in mind these are very soft, need to add some other springs to support more than a 22r. Here is my approach angle......

I pulled a couple leaves since then to lower it and get a better shackle angle.

Well all they will be supporting is a 2.5 so theres not that much more weight there haha. I'm hoping my 38's will sit flush as i'm tired of running my shackles into everything.
