Deaver Leaf Springs and ReadyLift 2" SST Kit

Transient · March 26, 2023

As soon as I need new tires for my Trail Boss I'm going bigger. 285/75/18 to be specific. Duratracs are available in this size, have a total diameter of 35.1", and weigh 60 lbs. ReadyLift says this size tire is the biggest that be done with the 2" kit without trimming. Reading up on the kit, it only raises the rear 1". I have not found another kit that does 2" front and rear. I not a fan of the leveled look and prefer the OE rake. Doing research on how to raise the rear 2" I looked into the leaf springs and found Deaver Springs has a set (M27) that'll raise the Trail Boss/AT4 1". Has anybody combined the ReadyLift kit with the Deaver Springs yet? If so, what were the results like in your experience? Is this even doable in practice, as opposed to theory?

I have Deaver M27 leaf packs in the back (took me 18 months to get them from Deaver) and they are amazing. I had to get a little creative because I have a 6 inch lift, so I changed to a 4 inch block in the rear to go with my Fox coilovers in the front. Definitely worth the wait, you wont regret it one bit.
