Wondering if anyone was running this setup?
I currently have a Duff 3" kit on the front of my '91 Sport, with 4-door leafs in the rear and Duff lift shackles. While the front netted a positive 3" lift, the rear only gained about 1", even after swapping in 4-door leafs (this just made the ride awful) and installing the lift shackles.
I've decided that I don't want to screw with add-a-leafs or additional length shackles, and instead just want to move to a new leaf pack. I'm looking at Superlift 4" leaf pack for the Explorer (part no. 01-194), which I will probably install with the original shackles. I don't mind if there's a little bit of rake, since I often tow and load up the back with stuff, I'd prefer to have a bit of it so that I'm not sagging when loaded down.
I'm aware of F-150 leafs. At this point I just really want to go with new parts.
Just looking for any input from those that may have gone this route.
Thanks,
Jeff
