52 swap is it worth it?

[krwilliams79]

I have a set of four inch front lift springs that where given to me and I've been reading about people doing the 52 swap and I'm just wondering would the 52 swap be worth it? My truck is a daily driver and dose see some moderate fourwheeling. If anyone could please let me know what you've done or what's working for you. I would appreciate it

Your DD is not a good candidate for front 52"s. They give lots of flex, sure, makes for great crawling, but with that comes a totally wobbly front end, such that cornering is best not done at all, never mind at any speed. Mine was like riding in a kid's bouncy house and less safe.

Been there, done that, un-done that. I took mine off and went to a set of stock length Alcan customs from ORD.

See, same answer as K85Octane

I love my 52's. But dremu and k85 are probably right. I don't DD mine so I don't care about the handling.
