TTB springs.... can they be used for doing an SAS and work properly? My ranger has lift springs for he ttb and its sits at the height I want (any higher and Ill need a ladder) but I would like it to flex. I dont rock crawl so I dont need airshocks and huge radius arms like whiterhino and a few others but just better than stock flex. I plan on using a D44 and my 34 LTBS so its not a huge truck just my beater.

OOR should I just use leafs... I think I could get descent flex outta those its jsut the steearing would be a pain.

IIrc solid axle swap with ttb springs gives additional 2" of lift .

I dont want anymore lift the truck is too high already. I should have specified will the spring rate be low enough to do this?

No probably not. Depends on what springs you have now but some ttb springs are nearly twice the rate of sa springs for the same unloaded length. You could cobble them in there but they might be beastly. :eek:

Nvm I think Im just gonna leaf the front instead and thrown in a d44hp 8 lug it cant be an worse than a regular d44 with only 34s just have to find a descent 8 lug rearend. 14 bolt or something along that line

14b with 34's? You'll be draggin the pumpkin any time you air down:p. IMO I'd stick with 5 lug and a 9 inch if you're gonna be runnin 34's

Im on a budget is all so its whatever I can get cheap. I might throw agg tires or something on later on but for right now I got a set of month old 34s I want to get the good out of.

If its cheap you are looking for, there should be a gazillion more 1/2 ton Ford D44's than 3/4 ton, and are slightly less desirable, so that should be the cheapest donor. If you already have a deal on a 3/4 ton 44, you'll need outers from a 1/2 ton to keep it 5-lug. That way you can keep your 8.8 or 9" saving you few hundred more bucks.

Btw, getting the right coils would seem like the easy part as opposed to leafing it a different rear end.
