DEAVER SPRINGS

I really forgot how nice Deaver Springs felt. I had a 2006 with Deaver Springs and the ride was great. We were living in California where the concrete roads suck. With making the change to Deaver Springs and putting a good lift on it. WOW. Fast forward had a 2011 regular truck not to much done. Now I have a 2017 with an 8” lift on 40”. Upgraded the springs and man what a difference. I forgot how they really felt. Is it worth the investment, it is. Be prepared to wait as they are a little slow on building them but definitely worth the wait.

Nice truck! What's the make and model of the bumper? Any more pics (side, rear, etc.)?

They are Kelderman Alpha series bumpers with a 16,000lb winch. 8” Fabtech 4.0 coilovers.

I put Deavers on my '91 Ranger and saw almost zero ride change. Glad it worked good for you.

You probably wouldn’t. Your not comparing the same thing. A Ranger would be compared to to Toyota Tacoma in that year. They already had a soft suspension.

Not sure. Lighter than the front. Front is heavy and then add the winch. I would say around 150 lbs.
