Default bds coils rough country leafs

I found a set of 4.5 bds coils and 3.5 rc leaf springs but my question is how well would they ride together? And since im budgeting could I get away with a tcase drop till I can afford an sye?

And how hard would it be to fab iupa bumper like the one in this thread at the bottom? I cant find anything about it.

They should ride fine. Just watch the shackle angle in the rear. And yes, a t-case drop will work until an SYE is an option.

That'd be a nice Setup. Just add adj. Track bar, sye, and a relocation bracket to get a happy shackle angle. Assuming you've picked up some new arms.

I found an adjustable track bar for 150. Sye will come in time and was looking at affordable adjustable lca as well.
But as far as ride quality they shoukd ride together nicely?


Any clue on that front bumper? I like the minimalistic look of it.
