One more question. Does the new WH suspension have a little rake to it? Slightly lower in the front than the back. If so, about how much?

I posted the same question a few days ago and only got a couple of replies with 2 recomendations for WH and no bashing. Hope you get some positive responses as I just placed my order last night. I know there are a lot of opinions on suspension out there but everyone seems to be mesmerized with "I bet I'm the only one ( 1 2 3 4 5 ... 25)" thread. Maybe you should have titled your request "Pictures of my new boob job. Are they too big?";D ;D ;D

Too, Funny! But true!

CHuck, I aint blowing you off. I had your springs on my last bronco and I loved em. I just figured with the price of fuel, shipping any distance was a killer. Do you have any idea what it would cost to ship a set of coil and leaf springs to the San Francisco bay area?
Give me your zip code and I can find out for you

I have been running the WH Stage 9 3.5 inch Suspension set-up with a 2 inch BL on 35 inch MTR's since 2003. I drive 2 hrs to the trails . I do 65-75 mph on the freeway. I've never regretted having Jim's set-up. The front is starting to sag alittle, but ALL Coils will after a given time.

Thanks for the offer Alex, but I want to keep it a little lower. I will be buying the WH springs. I am having a guy in Sacramento do a few custom mods on it here soon. I'll try to get some pics up when I do.

Didn't mean to rag on UPS but shipping costs reguardless of being considered fair, cheap, gouged, reasonable, or ridiculous, are putting a real hurt on my project. I fly for Frontier and we have so much cut throat competition that we can't raise fares enough to stay healthy. I do wait with great anticipaton for that big brown truck to pull up infront of my house.

I hear ya, I find myself waiting to order anything until I have several things to order. That way I can save a few bucks on shipping. It would be nice if I got an employee discount. Fuel costs are going to kill us all.
