Outer Limits 4x4 Board

ok whats better 4 link coils in the back with leaf springs in the front
OR 1/2 elliptic in the back and leaf springs in the front [1/2 elliptic is normal leaf spring one end is connected to the normal spot at the front and the back of the leaf has a half a leaf spring upside down connected to it then back to the top of the wheel arch of the shaze

the truck is 4 runner bobbed

I was thinking 1/2 elliptic would be normal leaf sprung

yeah seen that other thread and thought i replyd

haha 2 threads

4 link.

coil's, 1/4 eleptic, airshocks, leafs with shackles at both ends
can all be used with a 4 link

read the top its not like daved camps u have ur leaf spring as normal just at the end of the leaf spring u have a half a leaf spring up side down conected to the normal spring and to the body at the wheel arch
3/4 is one leaf spring up side down

i think u r confused

maybe

1/2 eleptic is stock
1/4 is like dave camps ( u will need a link setup to hold the diff under the car for this setup)
3/4 eleptic is what u are decribing ( it makes 3/4s of a circle)

thanx for making it clear what do u do if the back diff is seized will putting it in diesal fix it it wes sitting around for a year in the diff housing

Sounds like your describing 3/4 eliptic. Linking the rear end would probably be the best method, as Redzook said that way you have the option of coils, 1/4 eliptics, air shock, coilovers or 2 shackle leafs.

i normally just ask in General 4x4 Tech/Discussion forum and wait for a reply and not ask all over the place

try to keep threads on topic
and dont post them in 2 spots ( this thread is both in the toyota section and here)
