I paid 100 for the OEM leaf springs because I work at a car dealership and then bought the AAL with my lift because I didn't see the point in getting a full leaf pack and yeah I know some people don't get that lucky to getting some for that amount of money but you never know.

I doing the same, I don't see the harm as long as it a full length AAL. My buddy bought a 01 brand new and put a AAL on after a couple hundred miles, there isn't any sag

Yup, was just waking up from a nap and didn't read it right sorry about. If you go with a 3" or 3.5" full leaf pack, I think would be a great investment in the long run. IIRC ZONE has a 3" full, and I know RE had a 3.5" full. With added weight from accessories you would be better off. Just depends on size bumpers, rack, gear in the back. How much cheaper is a new OEM W/ aal, compared to the roughly $250 you could at Serious Offroad?

I'm not trying to spend over 500... Lol I have the 242 so I'm hoping a t case drop will work..do I need to get new brake lines too? What about gears for the diffs?

Still haven't stated how much of a lift you want. You can relocate the brake lines. Gears depends in your tire size and the performance you want on/offroad.
