Default lift- add a leaf kit or spring pack kit

helpppppp pleasee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



first, i was thinking of a 3 inch lift but now i will go with the 4.5(rustysoffroad)...
question-
how much harder is the installation of the 4.5 compared to the 3?

second, whats the difference with the add a leaf kit and the spring pack kit and which one is better for me? and how hard is the installation compared to each other?
- it will be a daily commuter, maybe a few offroading here and there but nothing extreme.

I would love to go with the add a leaf kit because its cheaper but i dont know if it will be bad or soemthing? and i heard that you get death wobbles when it gets lifted?

thanx

spring packs and all size lifts depend on how much comes in it the key to lifts is spraying all the bolt a couple of days before with pb blast to penetrate the rusted threads

i installed the aal on mine and it rides a little stiff but not to bad it really depends on how much your factory springs are sagging on which one i'd go with. mine was like new with hardley any miles thats why i chose the aal
