I just put 33's on my 90 xj and the lift I got before was AAL so needless to say my springs are flat and I have a 3in lift, well 2 in the back haha, should I get a bastard pack for the back or should I just save and get the 3in lift leaf springs?

If money is tight then get the bastard pack for around $40,if not then spend the few hundred to get the leaf packs.My bastard pack has held up very nicely and it gave me about 4.5in.

xjbuddy

in my experience bastard packs are a hit or miss. your better off saving up and buying new leaf packs. you will save yourself the headace and trouble of doing bastard packs. AND you will have peace of mind that the new packs will last longer than bastard packs. just my 2 cents. good luck man.

They will last if they are good before you put them on.If they are all ready worn beforehand then they suck.Make sure you see them before they are taken off the donor.

alrighty Ill jsut save my money and buy the 300 dollar new leafs then seems about the smartest decesion since I dont plan on going with any bigger lift anytime soon at all.

I'm in the same place as you, currently im running 2in blocks and the leafs got flat from it. So im looking into Rustysoffroad.com for the new leafs. or Summetracing

Jim_K
