Enjoyed the video, always looking for ways to improve my '46. In 50 years of owning it I've put it through a number of configurations, getting ready for another major redo this summer. I like what you've done with yours! The SM420 and longer, wider springs are things I'm seriously considering.
Had a SM420 in a '73 FJ40. Put it behind a Buick v6 or chevy stovebolt... Just fine-tune the colors on this one. A bigger windshield would be nice too. A bunch of scab plate on the frame. "Do the wiring cleaner" - I can relate.
They are actually a copy of the handles Phil Hoffman put in DJ Harmon’s original 4500 spec Jeep. One trip and I knew that was the way to go. My wife loves them.
Sweet rig dude. What brand of springs, and what are the measurements from center bolt to each eye? I'm corner weighting my 3B with race car scales to have Alcan Spring build a custom set for each corner. I know longer springs flex better and improve ride quality, so I'm interested in what you have going on before I order mine. Short and thin with multiple leafs are the way to build flexible packs (which is how Alcan builds), but they clap out way sooner. I want to avoid buyers remorse if the Alcans need rebuilt every 2 years.
