Is it worth the money or would it be better spent elsewhere?

Right now I have a 3.5 inch RE super ride kit. but it gave me about 5 inches in the back so to even it out I stuck some spacers in the front (1.75 inch). I have been thinking about pulling the spring/spacer conbo and just getting some 4.5 inch lift springs. What I am asking is would it be worth the 90 bucks or so for new springs or would that money be better spent on something else. I guess I am asking the same thing about some control arms, I have the 3.5 inch super ride arms and I have been thinking about upgrading to superflex ones while I am at it, I have never been wheeling in any jeep but my own so I would not know what the difference would be. Controll arms are pretty pricey so what do you guys think?

Did you get an add-a-leaf kit or full leaf packs? Bottom line is that most likely the rear springs will settle down a bit over time. How long ago did you put them on? I am currently running SF lower arms, so i don't know what you'd gain by swapping out the SR lower arms. I have a set of adjustable upper and lower CAs to go on. If you are interested in my SF lowers, feel free to make an offer. The joints are good and tight, they need nothing.

The reason I am thinking about a new spring for the front is because it has been almost 2 years and the rears have not settled (full springs),
