True, if a user can't take our honest criticism then they're on his/her own. And gettin close to death is a rush to some bwahahahah.

Wait, you gave a positive review before and someone didn't listen. They on their own now. I love my destination ATs. Same things get me through a lot. Do good in jersey WMA mud

so heres something you probably havent heard before, im thinking about lowering my jeep. im running Rubicon 4.5 coils in the front and 3.5 leafs out back, but this combo netted me 5.25 in the front and almost 6 in the back.
im running 31sso it feels like im on stilts.
i would buy bigger tires but my axles have 307 gears.
i used to run a 3 inch kit and my jeep didnt have any problem on the trails where i live.
so facing the more than two grand in bills it would take to correct these issues, 100 bucks for 3.5 inch coils is sounding pretty good to me.
if i were to remove a leaf from my packs to drop the rear end would it ride better?
which leaf should i take out?
also im not really digin the spring rate on these re coils.
any advice would be appreciated

get 3 in coils for the front and weight the back with sandbags or possibly slack the leaf spring bolts, shake jeep and re tighten. Reason I say this. Many people do the foolish thing of tightening the bolts when the jeep is off the ground which is the WRONG thing to do. Not saying you did this but gotta throw it out there.
DO NOT overtighten the leaf spring and shackle bolts. Too tight, and the shackle won't move. Common source of complaints on YJs from people who think "three grunts" is the shackle torque spec





Nah I'm kidding. If you want to get trolled try Facebook. Hey, some people think they're going to die a lot easier than others!
