I'm about to lift my '86 shortbox 4" to fit teh 35s on it. The trucks isn't too heavy so I wants a soft spring to make it ride decent. Right now it had stock springs with add a leafs and it rides very very hard. Anyone have any suggestions for lift brands?

tuff country(EZride) or skyjacker i think are the softest ones. check the tech section for spring rates. I got the skyjackers on my 72. they feel just right. i think the EZrides would have been too soft.

I think I'll get a 4" Tuff Country EZ ride w/ rear blocks for now then when I get more funds then I'll do a shakle flip in the rear
