what is the best suspension to buy
 

i am going to put new suspension under my my 91 w250 i dont want to go over 3 in what is the best suspension kit to buy for it any input is appriciated

a lift for your truck is very simple expecially just a 3 inch.

-get a lift so that the rear springs delete any or all blocks used fro m the factory. so if you have a factory 3inch block and want to go up 3 more inches make sure to order springs that are 6inches taller than the factory ones so you can delete the block. -not necisary but better-

-get good shocks. with such a small lift there will be MANY MANY differend kinds of shocks to choose from. i like air shocks for these bigger trucks. gives you that littel extra capacity when you want it or cushion when you dont.

- i wouldnt worry about a pitman arm with just a 3 inch. your geometry will be fine

i like my skyjacker's but they're 4 inch but he's right about the shocks they make a world of difference cause i had to ride around for a while with no shocks on the back (bad idea)

I would. My truck bump steered with 2" Syjacker springs up front until I installed the drop pitman.

thanks for the info but i think i am going to get a set made at madison spring for 229 a pop with 3 in of lift and run skyjacker nitrogen shocks may as well get american steel made in the usa not assembled here

and 6in in the rear to delete the blocks which the farmer i bought the truck off of welded to the axle so this will be interesting

I'm planning for crossover steering when I lift... the stock push/pull type rubs my tire so I can only steer part way to the right. :ouch:

I found Skyjacker softride rear leafs for $300 each. Wish I could remember if they were 4" or 6". Stock replacements were in the $280-350 range. I've looked online too, but freight cost is insane. :argh:

'Jungle' over at RCC makes some nice lift hangers. :tu:

Get a drop pitman arm. Mine has the drop arm and kingpin spacer if I remember right. Just for the 6" lift but will one day go to crossover steering. Also get steering stabilizers.

i am going to be gettin custom springs liftime warranty and only 716.00 for new springs shackles bolts bushings u bolts and u bolt plates and it 2in lift

the blocks in the rear are 6 inches tall correct?

4 I believe
