Saweet man.....but Leaves? C'mon man.....:wtf:

coil overs are over rated my leaves use every bit of the 14" stroke on the shocks front and rear. Just like your 14" coil over that you pay big money for

I didn't say coilovers....Coils. Grand Cherokee stuff. $110/pair new or $165/pair for RE lift springs. My theory is that of approach and departure angles and with flexy leaves toy get spring wrap (even in the front) which leads to traction bars (AKA links) which is just one step away from coils. So put the coils in to start. PLUS the coils ride so nice, you don't break a main coil and have to duct tape/c-clamp/vice-grip it to limp it back.

maybe in a couple years. eventually this is gonna be a full on truggy, linked front/rear, with an SBC, but right now its a DD, and since you probably couldnt tell, my funds are limited.:flipoff:
