What 3" lift springs for towing???
Needing to find a good leaf springs in the 3" lift range for towing. Any Suggestions or experience is appreciated. not really worried about a super flexy spring. Just something that will hold up to regular towing of a zero turn mower and trailer a couple times a week. A Bastard Pack even,,

if you're on a budget, i would just bastard pack it, the factory 4leaf setup is weak and after ~15 years are usually flat or inverted by now. I added an xj main to each side and then added in some s10 springs and shuffled them around till i found a height i liked. and while you're in the junkyard you can grab some mid-90's tbird coils to lift the front between 3-4 inches, should cost well under 100 bucks for everything. get new ubolts.

I think the height varies a bit by engine, 3.8, 3.8 s/c'd, or 4.6... I'm sitting at 7" front & rear with tbird springs & 3" spacers in the front, and s10 & xj springs in the rear with 2" blocks. i forget which engine the tbird i pulled from had, i think it was a 4.6

If your springs are worn out buy new leafs espically if your towing. Don't throw on a bandaid with a bastard pack.
RE, BDS, Old man Emu HD all make great leafs that are not too pricy
