Nothing beats a set of leaves and some quality trac-bars when it comes to hooking it up.
I've seen many leaf spring vehicles encounter hopping from spring 'wrap-up'. I think each has benefits depending on specific vehicle applications. One thing that's common, which ever set-up is utilized needs to be tuned properly for best results.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
