sounds like you need to learn to use a volt meter n check your wiring its not that hard to wire up and if your blowing a 40 u have a short to ground somewhere

i took the main leaf and the second leaf out and used just the two, it gave about two inches i think, if i were u, find a spring under axle truck that has really arched leafs and use all the leafs with ur main xj leaf, using blocks scares me
