Suspension questions
I drive a 1992 Dodge W250 and wanted to know if anyone here has converted their front leaf springs to coil suspension? Also has anyone here done front and rear? Please provide photos, I'd love to see some already done. Thanks in advance. Jason

Jason,
Why would you want to convert the perfect setup ?
I specifically bought a first gen 4x4 because of the leaf front suspension. After owning it, I grew to love it all, including all of it's quirks.
The reason I don't own a second, 3rd, 4th or 80'th gen is because of the suspension in the front. I like the way it rides, especially now that I have my new springs installed.
So what gives with the ideas ?

The coilover front ends seem pretty weak compared to what we have. I just installed skyjacker nitro shocks on the front of mine today n it rides so nice now even with original leafs.
