Actually, I tried this method and it helped. I also used channel locks to clamp the 1st and 2nd spring to keep them together until the others got closer.

I drove it to work last night on the freeway and it was pretty smooth, by no means a caddy, but I must say I was impressed. For $290 shocked and shipped I think the kit is a great value.

I loaded up the rear with some heavy stuff and got a full tank of gas. I think this will help that rear settle some.

Anyone have an idea on what the stock wheels and tires are worth? I am going to post them on CL. THe tires are pretty worn, but still have some usable tread left (maybe 30% or so). Wheels are in great shape and center caps are all there (just paid $15 for two weeks ago )

I would either paint the wheels and use the silver caps, or keep the wheels silver and use the Jeep labeled center caps. The black makes a good contract, to much silver the other way.

Agreed, I like the stock caps better.
