equivalent to RE lift
Hello,
I have a Rubicon Express 3.5" lift with an add-a-leaf on my 2dr Cherokee. I want to put in a full leaf spring pack but RE stopped doing business. Can anyone recomend a company that produces a spring pack with an equivalent lift. I hear the 3.5" lift is really more like a 4-4.5" lift.
Thanks,
Brent

I know where you can get a RE 3.5 full leaf pack. Out from under my XJ! I'm wanting to sell them and get some 5.5 or 6.5" full packs. And you're right, the RE kits are taller than advertised most of the time, as was the case with mine. If you're close enough to pick them up or want to pay some shipping maybe we can work something out. I think they ran me $350 new.

used would be your best bet though I know a lot of people hate the RC springs
IMO the RC springs are about an inch to 2 inches short over all length wise and you get some nasty shackle angles.
I'd run terra flex springs with a JKS shackle myself http://www.teraflex.biz/overstock-3-...ring-pack.html

if you've got the coin and your in SoCal you can go to Deaver and have them make you a custom pack to fit your needs. way better than any off the shelf pack out there.

who said anything about RC. he's looking for RE springs. which, if i'm not too mistaken, rusty's gets his leafs from the same company that supplies RE (rubicon express).
