What happened to the coils?  Looks like there are leaf springs under all 4 corners now (with links)?

[BOGIN4D9]

coils were too soft made provisions for them at a later date

[four_by_ken]

Are the links going to allow the leaf springs to move the way they should?
Maybe remove two of the links (either the top or the bottom) until you go with coil springs.

I think you are going to bind up.

The leafs where there last year and worked good. i put the leafs back under the rear for now so i can wheel it. Its gona take some time to build the coilovers. once we get them built the leafs are comming out

[BOGIN4D9]

 we have a super secret idea (besides it may bind but they still work with shackles on both ends ,you just don't get much life out of the leaf springs) I've been running them that way on my blazer with single sheer 3/4 heims for 14 plus years
