I'm getting ready to install some BC rear spring rockers. I have a 3 1/2" lift so I will need to get some 5 1/2 front coils. I have WH rock crawler front coils now and they have great flex and ride. I have heard great things about BC springs. Which should I get? Oh yeah, then there is always Cage???? decisions decisions

If your running BC rear products, why not use products for the Front from BC also. Just seems to make sense to keep the same concept front to rear.
As you can tell, I am big on using vendors full systems, whether it is a complete system from "DUFFS", "Wild Horses" or even BC Broncos.

I have the Cage coils on mine and so far they have done very well.

if you get it all from one vendor there is a better chance of getting the ride height you want. That way the front height matches the rear.

I would stick to the same vendor front and rear. I am partial to the WH stuff because I just got the 5.5 WH coils and leaf packs put on my Bronco. They are some great guys but if it were me and since you already have some BC stuff I would call them. I think BC just came out with a 6.5 coil but I'm not sure. Good luck... ;D

I'm running BC 5.5 coils in the front and WH 5.5 leaves in the rear. It all looked and worked GREAT until I put a winch on the front. I had to take 2 leaves out of the rear to level it and it still has a little rake to it. I still love 'em though (fairly good ride and AWSOME flex). Just plan ahead if you don't have a winch, but plan to add one someday.

I am also running the Cage coils like saddleup. They are a top knotch coil, and Cage Offroads service is Great too. The BC coils are a good choice also. But I have not used the WH coils.

Heres a link to the Cage coils LINK
