Rusty's leaf packs
So I'm tired of my leaves sagging now andI have money for new ones. What do ya'll think about rusty's? Do they sag? I've looked at RE and they just seem a tad too expensive.

personally i dont like rustys stuff. BUT from what i hear their springs arent bad. although they are a bit softer which means if you are planning to have a lot of weight on your jeep they will sag below their advertised lift amount.

I have heard that the HD Leaf Packs from quadratec are pretty nice and inexpensive. I have been thinking about ordering some myself.
I haven't really heard great things about Rusty's either, but they can't be to horrible since they still are in business...so take it how you want.

i've had rustys 4.5" leafs for about a year now. they got about 5 1/4" of lift out of them and so far have stayed that height. i do drive my jeep alot and can't complain about the way they ride. i have heard many negative things about rusty's products and can vouge for the track bar being crap (snapped mine). but so far so good with the leafs

I don't own them but i helped my gf's brother install his on his jeep. He got the 3" full packs from Rusty's. They looked just like every other leaf spring pack i've seen. Quality seems good. He says they ride alright but mentioned that one of the friction pads is about to pop out (the clip broke off somehow). Other than that he's satisfied. He got 3.5 out of them.
I've noticed alot of people are going with the HD stock packs from quadratec and then taking the main leaf off their old packs and adding it to the HD pack for a good 2-2.5" lift. Just an idea.......
