Anyone that has an 88 or newer chevy truck with the 63 inch rear leaf springs. If you do rock crawlin and have lifted your truck what company makes your leafs in the rear. I'm looking for a good flexiable leaf, I don't want to put a block on. Did you have to have them custom made?

currently I'm running stock springs withan ORD shackle flip and 4" blocks but I plan on getting Skyjacker softrides when the time comes, I use them on the front and they ride nice and flex very well. I believe Tough country and Superlift also make them. Also check out www.offroaddesign.com and have a look at the shackle flip, it'll net you 4" of lift using your stock srings, and they're very well made.

Oh, I just noticed your name, I guess your putting them on a toy, in that case disregard the shackle flip info.

Well it would be for both, my toy, and my dad has a chevy blazer. Since the 63 flexy so well I was thinkin to do that to it or put a coil sprung on the back, the ones off the pre 72 2wd chevys. The 63 leafs would be far easier and cheaper
