OEM leaf springs...HD questions
Just decided I need new leaf springs. I know I want to just go with oem Mopar jeep springs. But HD. I know they have a few to choose from. Do any give the rear a small lift? I'm looking no more then 2 inches. Do any of the HD springs lift the rear at all? My father works at a jeep dealership and he's going to get me some prices but I need some part numbers. Searched but no luck. I have read that the quadretec HD springs give no lift. That's why I'm curious if any of the oem HD springs will bump the rear up a tiny bit. So any info would he great. Part numbers too. If not then ill need to do some more research. Thanks. I have also read that the up country model springs lift too. But I'm really looking for he HD springs. Plan on getting a trailer and towing every once and awhile. Want to make sure the rear is ok for towing before I do so.

I'm really looking to buy the mopar leafs. I am looking at OME leafs now so we will see. But 2 inch max is what lift I want and that's he lowest they have. Plus they are like 160 a side. I'm hoping to not spend that much.

I just seen a oem jeep parts website that has the standard leafs, HD leafs, and off road. What is the difference, say comfort wise, between HD and off road? Any one suggest one over the other? Still trying to decide which way I'm going.
