great idea, someone brought it up last week i think

You can use a tow strap to limit down travel, and it will be lighter than all that extra crap to hold the spring in. Pro Comp makes straps in various lengths for off road trucks.

I was also thinking of a bolt in perch on the torsion axle, but since there is a hole in the middle, make the lower perch adjustable.

LOL yep, thanks for the suggestion!

so now, we can use a shorter spring for a higher rate, as long as we use a strap to shorten the droop! 400 lb rear springs, here we come?
