Alright guys...

Just getting my axle/engine swapped rig on the road. The front axle/leaf springs seem to do great over bumps... soley for the fact that my powertrain is probably 500+ lbs heavier of what the original 230 tornado weighed. So the truck in front rides nice. But wow... the back. (and ouch, my back). How many guys have removed rear leaf springs seeking ride improvement? If so, how many did you pull, which ones, and what was your resulting quality improvement. I will oil and bag/tag the removed leafs, but I built this entire rig to have somewhat street manners. It stops on a dime effortlessly (4 wheel disc, hydro-boosted), and it steers with one finger in a parking lot easily. The last check-mark I have left is negating just "some" of the empty dump truck feel.


So what say you zone... Is it worth it? (Note I don't need/have too, I already am smiling ear to ear after 4 years of restoration... but I no long term I need to tame it down in order to drink coffee while driving to work etc.
