Leaf Spring Advise

Postby numbr4fan » Tue Jun 25, 2019 5:08 pm

I am looking at getting a pair of rear lift springs for the bronco and I see that I have two choices. A 9 pack spring, and an eleven pack spring. Does anyone on here know the difference between the two (other than the obvious) and what handling characteristics are like with both. Also wondeingr in general which is the better option.
Thanks for any help.

Depending on your lift you also have a 5 leaf option.

Typically more leaves = more flex and softer ride to some extent.
