Welcome to the site man....
What springs are you running and what length of shackles? If your using leaf springs it is probably just short leafs or stiff leafs keeping you from getting some good flex. There are some good aftermarket springs and some you can find at junkyards. I use all-pro springs and really like them. Alcan makes some good springs. If you want cheaper ones you can look at Chevy springs, Wagoneer springs, or whatever you can make work. Some guys hand build their own leaf packs out of mazda, toy springs or whatever they get their hands on.

WELCOME to TOR.
If you got stock spring, you won't get much from them. Give us a run down on your current set-up and we can give you some more advice. Also let us know how much flex you're looking for and $$$ willing to spend.
