So, ive got to cut off my leaf hangers and widen them for the dana 60 install anyways. So i was wondering if anyone has used the 54" chevy spring up front and how they performed? Its either this or rears-up-front...the hangers being farther forward isnt a big issue as i can work them into the winch bumper.

I have marlin crawler fronts now (47" flat, 22"/25") and the 54" (26"/28") will move the axle forward about the same as the rears-up-front would. Thoughts?
 
Trial and error. If I already had the 54" chevys, I would run them. I say that from experience because I had some of them on the back of my CJ5 for about a 4" wheelbase stretch. I doubt if you will not like them; but the length is kinda odd and if you went with another leaf later, you would have to completely redo everything.
 
Will the rest be linked? I think I'd run the Yota rears just because they are easily replaceable and more leaves to add/delete when tuning the ride. Just my $0.02.
