So...When I bought my jeep the Po threw in a steering brace. I just finally located all the bolts etc to it.. I know that the () shaped piece wraps around the steering box.. well where the hell does the other end bolt to? I figured it would bolt to the unibody somewhere but if you attach it to the steering box it doesnt even come close to lining up to the unibody, its like 2 inches too long.. WTF. lol

Interesting. Somehow you seem to have the clamps for a steering box, but that's a trackbar brace, which is why it's so long

Wonder if its worth the while to bolt up the brace.

Offer 50..
They have been painted, rustys never comes silver. Also, I dont know ive heard of rustys HD coils..thought they were all 150lb spring rates.. which ride nice.
Unless they offer a "HD" version in a bit heavier of a rate.

Yea..like dukie confirmed then..
Just rusty coils but with the 180lb spring rate instead of the normal 150 they use.
Wont ride as cushy but for 50 bucks id pick em up.
Hell, i guess 70 isnt bad either..but I just bought RE 4.5" coils from serious for that price new.
