I would like to install my front D60 with
spring over and net a 4" lift from stock
height. The OEM front springs look like they
would provide about 6" of lift if I use
them as they are. I have heard that some
Chevy trucks used front leaf springs that
had a slight negative arch and was wondering if
these might work on a '79 Cherokee. Anyone
familiar with these or something that would
net me about 4" of lift and flex well. It looks
like a longer spring might fit up there also
and moving the axle forward a little might help as well. Looking for good info and or pics if
anyone have found a sweet setup on a FSJ SOA
that works well without too much lift. My front
axle is a Dana 60F from a 1977 K30 with 69"
WMS-WMS. I'm using Hummer rims with 7" back spacing. The front axle is already set up for
SOA perches since that is how it was in the K30.
