I just called Rocky Road looking for sone Missing Links for YJ springs on my 87 Sami. They said they no longer sell them because the Yj springs flex too much to take advantage of them. Is this actually true???

I'm not sure whether that is true or not, but I think Geoff Beasley is running ml's with his CSC kit. One of the Trail Tough rigs (auqa color one) at the SoR event was also running YJ's with missing links.

If worse comes to worse you can get a set of revolvers...

They flex really well, and I would not use them in front again...not needed in front, and they really contribute to wandering. The rears are great though...

Damn Toolman! M/L's And YJ springs?! I can see why Brent chose to stop fooling with that combo - I don't like my rear Sam springs + M/L's - just too sloppy.

Why don't you set them up as SR? <IMG SRC="smilies/grinpimp.gif" border="0">
