I had buggies and pulled them out again :!: Did'nt do that much, if your going to do it you really need to 4link the rear and run a shackle at the front of the main spring and have the buggy leaf pivot at the front as well.
Hope that makes sence.

no it doesnt.


do you mean a longer main leaf, and the buggy inverted along the chassis from the orginal spring mount?

yours looked to work well with only a track bar dave.
