You'd be better off getting the rear springs to use in the front.

It'll work, but the rears up front flex/ride alot better than those 6" lift stock replacements will.

what do they measure compared to all-pro's, marlins, trail gears springs that they sell in their sas kits, did you measure them, and measure your frame and about where they will be? to see if they will work
oh and dont be afraid to use the search button!!!

Search over on Pirate.............more info than you can shake a stick at. I'd personally run the setup I described with some 63" chevy's out back to keep it low and get more flex, but you can certainly run the shorter springs up front if you are dead set on it. Let us know in about a year after you search all the info on that setup over on pirate...........it'll take about that long to read it all! :D

There's a difference between lurking/reading up and posting........."How much lift to clear 33's" :D

.........so, don't post..........just lurk/read/search............it's all there! ;)

If that's what you're after just have him go over there in the early Toy forum and ask if anybody has ever used Chevy springs on a Toy before! :D
