I just need to clarify something regarding a RUF..

I currently have 2 inch springs front and back - If I do a RUF can I use stock rears with longer shackles, or would i need 1-2 inch springs also?
I searched, but couldn't find exactly what I needed...

Cheers.

and the secondary leaf as well as it supports pretty much the whole length of the main.

on a side note, where did you search, there would only be about 20 odd pages of stuff on RUF

I looked here and on outers - lucky I asked because I had never heard Royce's suggestion.

Damo, you funny :lol:

Don't put thoughts in his head though, he may just want to upgrade the hydro suspension.
