Rustys lift spring ?
Im ordering my 3 in rustys lift tomorrow and am wondering if to get the standard or heavy duty spring rate for the front. Maybe eventually be looking into a new front bumper but won't be for quiet some time. Any input on getting the standard spring rate and possibly adding a bumper.

It's a preference thing. I like my suspension really soft but some like them stiff. My bumper with winch and all maybe lowered mine less than 1/2". I'm running their 6" TJ springs, which you won't find on their site, because they are a little softer than XJ springs.

even their regular spring is a little stiff for me. Go with the normal rate. I have softer springs than their normal, plus a tub bumper and winch and it works great
