ROUGH COUNTRY

thier pretty much the same price but for 10 bucks you get the rear brake extender from the rustys

any advice is appreciated thanks

 

im going with a rustys

 

im tellin ya man, wait and save up the cash for full packs. I started out with Rustys AAL's on mine and i didnt take 2 months before they started sagging and wrapping REALLY bad. I had quite the gangsta lean til i bought me some full packs from RE

 

what kinda condition are your current leafs in? cuz full leafs are really gonna be a better purchase in the long run IMO.

 

my current leafs are not bad and i dont go off roading to offten, so as long as they last a year or so, ill prolly want to go bigger any way. then i plan on the full packs

 

Im going with rustys for mine I would go with RC but im getting an exhuast so its easier to go from one place but be prepared rustys shipping can get kinda expensive from what i've heard

 

Yea theyre not too far from here so I just placed the order over the phone and drove down the next day to pick it up. Their shipping is very high though

 

get the full leafs... you will be replacing the rears within a year. ill lay money on it.

 

Mine didnt last 2 months

 

bump to get any more advice

 

I have researched and when you order call and you will get better service and possible lower shipping

 

You might as well go with a small block and shackles in the back.

 

A block? Hell no that's worse than an add-a-leaf... Full leaf packs in the rear or a shackle. No excuse for anything else.

 

how bout makin a bastard pack? its cheap as heck and lasts for a longggggg time.

 

thats what i was going to do but my wife was going to get me this for x-mas and i was trying to make it easy
now i see that you guys say it sags in a couple of months so i might go bastard packs and just buy the 3" coils and some shocks
