Alcan spring review!

[huntinguy]

Will guys this is my first thread on this forum. here's my rig.


Just got my front springs. I had them built to handle a 200 pound bumper and a winch. Still have to get my drop pitmen arm, the stearing stinks.

Front has 4" Alcans and rough country nitro shocks. The back is the stock springs off of a 1 ton with blocks and Procomp nitro shocks.

The truck rides a ton better than it did with stock springs.

Here's some flexing shots for you. It's not a crawler but not bad for a heavy truck. That's my dad driving.

My rears don't flex very well. The tire is off the ground.

Welcome hg !,

Gotta love that old American Iron :wings:.

Do the traction bars limit rear axle droop?

No thats just as far as they'll droop. My bars are pretty long so I don't have any binding problems.

Nice rig and welcome!

I see you're only about 2 hours away from me (Vermillion, SD). There's another guy not to far away from you who's into 1st Gen Dodges - here's his build thread (http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45580).

I used to view the Dodges that they would use around base with envy. Nice rig. Post whenever you can. Welcome!
