I'm thinking of replacing my dead stock spring leafs , and replace it with this spring leafs showing in the the link below :



( those leaf springs will only return the car to normal stock hight )

And than maybe I'll just buy 2 shackles to get my 3"

Is it ok to make this move ????
Will I have to get a new U-bolts or not ???

 

If that price is each?? Look up the medium duty old man emu leafs on Amazon. I got mine shipped to my door for $255 for the pair. They are 2.75 lift. Only $55 more for a quality springs and no need for shackles. Plus if you want to go bigger later your a step ahead.

 

Ya the price for each.
Looks great I'll check it now. But did u get new U bolts??

Thanks for posting

 

New u bolts are always recommend but if yours are original and there is no visual stretch in the threads it would be okay to use them but not recommended. It you choose to reuse which many people do make sure to retorque them a few times. Newly bolts are around $30 on average.

Also actually use a torque wrench set for proper torque. It has a effect on how the spring operates.

 

I paid a lil less a month ago so it would be $262 shipped. Still a great deal on one of the best springs out there.

 

OME leafs are definitely the way to go.

 

Good to know .. Thanks

 

But where can I find the bushing and U-bolts for those ??

 

They take stock size bushings. I use ebay for bushings and ubolts

 

Just go to Rustys Off Road and buy the 3" leafs American made and VG quality or his complete 3" coil/leaf lift package one of the best on the market for the price as far as quality.

 

Rusty kit will be perfect ... The problem is that the shipping will cost me over 400$ over the kit price!!
