    Nice job, Lucky is a really great looking jeep! 👍 Is there a reason for running heavy duty springs with 10-11 leaves on a trail rig compared to the lighter ones with 8-9 leaves?

    • @EJOWest
      @EJOWest Місяць тому

      The only reason I would put heavy duty leaf springs is if I have a winch or heavier engine than stock, something that would cause the lighter 8-9 leaf springs to sag.
