I'm thinking about getting some 4inch lift springs for the front of my Wagoneer.:D

Theyre not bad, you just need to break them in and they flex just fine. Theyre a lot more flexable than my Rusty's springs. And what are you going to do to lift the rear?

The jeep is already lifted but the front has shackles and they catch on everything.Here's a pic.http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr226/AMC_instigator/Stephans%20Jeep%20pics%2009-10/100_4970.jpg

After i broke mine in they really flex quite nice actually. I was pretty suprised at how well she flexed in some washed out roads. I say go for it. But get the rear springs too. Lift blocks can be bad juju

Mine have softened up w/ some repetive flexing..enough that I will be relocating some shackle mounts.

Spring over axle in the front and shackle reversal in the rear...;)

Keep the stock springs and do a SOA kit on the front. It will flex much better.

I was planing on putting a set of 35s on it in the next few months, I'll do the shackleflip with the blocks and put a bar from the axle to the frame.
