edit: i thought its a fair price 40 bucks per leaf idk seems fair to me
is be done with that. Get your refund and find a new seller......if its 76 for the pair thats not bad. The title and description imply its one aal when you read it.

well to finish this thread up,


it is doable to leave the main leaf spring on bolted to the jeep and drop the axle low enough to add the leaf one side at the time, passenger side went ok hand brake cable was a bit in the way cause of the muffler but just enough stretch to work around it. the drivers side i had to take the clip out of the brake line bracket where hard meets the soft line to get more flex and gave me a few more inches of drop.


ive used 3 small c-clamps to pack the leafs together with the center pin inserted and placed the pack on the axle with the center pin aligned in the axle hole and started to jack the axle back up aligning everyting together bit by bit slowly. once the center pin is almost completely through the hole in the main leaf spring i switched the c-clamps one at the time to pack the whole leaf pack together with the main leaf that was still attached and tighten everything back up.

i'll get a picture up soon


edit: of course i put the clip back in the brake line bracket after and also i added another spring hooked to the sway bar hinge that pulls the hand brake cable away up higher from the muffler cause that was touching and started to melt a little.
