Ok im sure this topic will have come up before. But search didnt help

Would you do this on a mq patrol, looking for 4inch (i assume this will give about two inch overall lift

What else do i need to do to make this work

Do they peform allright

I like the flex my standard springs give (and my ride quality), so i though this might be a worthwile option

Anyone selling any (i will post in wanted)

Not a good idea. Front of MQ chassis WILL break. Only get 1/2 of the lift anyway. Some legal Q's too.

Better to reset springs
