lifetime warranty????? do u have receipts of purchase??? i've never heard of anything like that. and what do u mean selling leaves? used leaves?
it's gonna cost you about $300 to get a set of leaves. and you'll be lucky if you can sell them later for about $100 a set.
another option is having them made for you. we have a shop in Roanoke, VA that makes leaf springs for any vehicle with any arch and hardness for about $100 per side.
either way, if you buy new leaf springs, add-a-leaf should hold up pretty good on them. it's the old and crappy leaf pack that makes them sag usually.

Ya I was very unsure on the shocks. Shocks wear out quick and lifetime? Wow. He said he found leaves on morris4x4 for 99$ a side. And yes he meant sell the new ones when I lift.

i doubt you could even get 100 for a set, at least around here you cant. All the leafs i see are like 20 bucks for the set. Tell him noone wants to buy used leafs so it would be a waste of money. Also you may be able to try the 2 inch lift then spacer and shackles approach.
