This was an interesting read. I have always wanted to put longer springs on my square body for a better ride with more wheel travel. I will probably never get time to do it until I retire. I do know that a lot of people don't like a soft ride. I also drive a 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee and a lot of guys on that forum complain about the flexibility and articulation causing a too soft ride. A fair amount of them put stiffer sway bars on them so they can carve corners on the highways. I don't understand it but there are people out there that feel that way. I grew up riding in Cadillacs so I appreciate a suspension that soaks up bumps.

PS the farmers around here used to buy their C10 trucks without sway bars for riding around the farms. The independent suspension lets the truck walk over bumps and humps on the ground. With a sway bar the whole truck hops up and down over every little hump.
