Hey guys, I just have a quick question, i was thinking about getting new leaf packs for my jeep since it is starting to sag a little but in a few years i was planning on buying a whole 6.5 inch long arm kit for it and was wondering can i add another add a leaf to it even though it is already lifted about 3.5 inches??? it wouldnt hurt anything right? The person who had my jeep before added like 2 peices of flat steel to each side of the leaf to give it another 3 inches of lift but i dont really think it even really has a lift in the back it might have the trailer package or something because it has 5 leafs in the rear?

It's starting to sag right? Yeah this won't fix that.
But new leaf packs. Post a picture of your leaf springs now. I don't understand what the PO did

You need to do something immediately to fix those shackles. They are some homebrew junk. Go order a pair of Rubicon Express 3.5" leaves and use a stock shackle or order a set of 4.5" leaves and run an extended shackle for your 6.5" lift... Either way, get rid of those leaf packs and shackles.
Also, post more pictures of them.
