Its going to be a slow 72 K5 build thread

[Bama72]

I'm 6'2" and about 210 and I have the skyjacker softride springs under mine. I can get the truck bouncing on either bumper, and the ride is just fine. no sway bar with no issues, but with that soft of springs, towing anything big can be kinda scary.

I've been trying to decide on the TC ezride or the Skyjacker softride. I have read several post on here that the TC's are not soft. Thanks for the input.

You might be confusing the Tough Country with Rough Country...

Tough Country = soft and flexy
Rough Country = stiff kidney busters


I know that TC makes an "HD" version for trucks with heavy winches, etc which adds about 100 Lb/in of spring rate to their regular "EZ Ride" springs...but either one should still be a comfortable ride compared to what you have now.

Caveat: I'm talking 4" springs here... if they make a 6" spring, that may be a completely different story and a lot stiffer.
