Metal tec springs

[crashman]

I am trying to post here since I got no response in the suspension section
I am wanting to find out if anyone is running the metal tec rear springs or what rear springs with a cbi rear bumper
I want the 27" travel if it will hold the bumper

First the springs then I want to add the rest as I can

truth be told it was great. I only went about 10 miles with a little freeway driving, but it was great. Since they are a progressive rate spring they take the bumps very well.

I also tested it out this past sunday and did a few high speed passes and made sure to get the tires off the ground (not trophy truck status) to feel the impact and i didn't bottom out or anything like that.

If you want the flex, I would get the full rear kit from MT, including Upper & Lower links.

What rear shocks did you go with looks like they are different from there kit shocks?

I went with the 2.5 resi icon shocks.
It's and upgrade to their original kit.
These were specifically set up for metal techs specs
