Shes has a pretty fat rear end. Had to weigh her to find appropriate spring for the back. I filled the water holding tank and loaded the dogs and everything i want inside.
I put 2" blocks in rear about 2 years ago and noticed the back has drooped, probably due to blocks settling or getting squished. I probably will go to leaf springs, can I ask where you are getting your springs from and the type?
Thanks

I assume the difference is not because it is 4X4, but that you get rid of the I-beam, correct?

I always read that unsprung mass is a bad thing for auto, but I guess there are some advantages.

Glad to hear you are getting better. Look forward to learn more from your build. Take it easy, and don't stress yourself out too much.
