how much more flex does it have?
the problem i have is that the tyres are fouling on the tray but can probably get another couple of inches, basically so the drooping tyre sits about 2-3" below the body
I suppose if I go 3/4 I will have to use a similar length spring for the upper spring as to the lower cj pack. I think using stock rears will be too short.
This may cause a prob because of availability of the cj springs so I might have to possibly look at maybe a hilux spring and just make a shackle to fit both packs or just go with the missing link/extended shackle.
Are the hilux springs 2.5 Inches wide?.
Also what are the downsides of having a long shackle sticking out on the rear?

Using a shorter spring for the extra quarter bit will not cause any problems - though it will have less droop than a longer spring.
