I'm pretty sure both of you used the rancho 44044s? If so could either of you give me a measurement from center of your bolt on your front leaf hanger to center of bolt in your frame tubes? I am helping a friend put in this axle tomorrow and it would be nice to know this length as it would help cut out some of the guessing with the shackle angles. Thanks!


I know its a jeep thing..... thats why I drive a nissan.

Supposedly there 47" eye to eye. People said the same thing on the 4" lift Toyota leaf springs, which measured 43" from eye to eye.

Yeah, I'm looking for the length of the actual hanger mounts though, not the leafs.

I was thinking the 44044s were a bit longer.
Thanks though!

I am still a little drunk, definitely hung over, and I just woke up... so my measurements may be a little off, but close enough.

with the weight of the truck on 'em, they measured from center to front at 23". From center to back, almost 25". I measered both packs, and they were the same... so there.

Now, I am gonna plop my happy ass on the couch and veg today, haha.

My Trail Gear toy front 3 inch lift springs measure 47 inches eye to eye (flat) 43 inches eye to eye across.

Are the Ranchos 47 inches eye to eye Flat?

I've got Rough Country springs. Very similar to the 4404's, but not sure if they're the same. Either way, looks like you got your info.

They probably wouldn't allow me to pack my tools on the plane.. The only thing that would fit in stow in go is my plasma cutter! I'm suprised to see that thing still IFS, I figured by now it would have already been converted.

I'm accumulating parts now. The IFS hasn't failed on it (yet).
