Re: '85 Short Bed 4X4

Lots of progress pics to come, fixed a lot of frame related issues. However I am at that point where decisions are to be made and I'm finding it difficult. I'd like to do the Off Road designs crossover steering, I am still learning about all that it entails, knuckles and such. I am pretty sure I have the corpo 10 bolt so it should be straight forward but I am finding leaf spring choice to be very tricky. I don't mind going a little higher than stock, but I don't want it too much different. 2 inch skyjackers seem to be the ticket, not sure if that'll clear the crossover, I don't plan on doing the highsteer unless I'm missing something and it is a good idea, i wont be rock crawling. I'd like to find a good example of a truck with these mods but haven't yet.
So where are y'all getting leaf springs from? who's a good source to ask about length of spring and just some good general leaf spring info? done some searching and I'll do some more.
