Default 3 in C AAL and 2 in shackles?

Hello everyone I was thinking about getting the RC 3 in AAL kit but my leaves are pretty saggy so I was thinking of getting a pair of RC 2'' shackles along with it. Do you think this is a good idea? (Im on a fairly low budget)

worn out leafs make for GREAT flex.. thats why wranglers with spring-over kits twist better than any other pack replacement lift kit..

your problem with the aal is going to be that they will only hold up for a couple months them you will be back to where you were. I would try to save a little more and get full spring packs.

X2 on the full packs, aals are a waste of money your jeep will look the same as it does now after a month or two of driving on add a leafs
