Re: 72 with 3/4 axles

Post up a couple pics of his spring set up now. Too much arch or alot of leaves will not help with a softer ride; height can be accomplished somewhat with hangers/shackle lengths. Unless they are super high dollar shocks, those fancy looking one usually are just that & are super stiff. I'd suggest some simple shocks that are correct length compressed & extended to match travel allowed by springs. And like Mike said play with the tire pressure. Had a set of 36" TSL that I ran 14lbs in & now run 37" military with 22 lbs. Correct tire pressure has alot to do with the vehicles weight & footprint of tire tread. For the disc conversion, this looks like a good kit. Have not bought it before (we used parts had laying around already), but have other parts from them w good results. https://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com...yABEgIjtfD_BwE
