Default Bastard Pack w/ Dakota springs

So I will be making my bastard pack with Dodge Dakota springs w/ over loads. I've been doing a lot of reading and haven't seen much on Dakota springs, so we will see how this pig turns out. My rear springs sag more then .... well I will keep it rated G but I think combination of the two will give me the 3.5 inchs I'm seeking.

Yep, you've done you're research. You should install some new shackles while youre at it. I've seen some adjustable ones that'll help level out your jeep. If its not level, it'll drive you nuts eventually.

I will make it level! I got enough springs to level this pig out. I will eventually get new shackles but I've already run up a 200$ bill in parts for this lift.
