I want to lift my truck and dont want to spend 4/500. So decided im going to ruf lift. Iv been looking for bedford rascal springs but find them hard to find. Is there any others that will do the job?

Check out Ladaman's thread, he used Nissan Nevara springs as part of a conversion, but they needed engineering to make fit.

I don't think there are any spring packs you couldn't make fit. People regularly fit anus YJ springs, for example. I considered trying Hilux leafs, perhaps with a leaf removed from the pack.

It really all depends on how much engineering you want to do.

Easiest are some 1.5-2" lift springs for the rear.
