Hey RB, I'm putting your kit on an '88 Waggy I'm doing an SOA on and I got a quick question. I'm going to run either 2.5 or 4in lift springs in the front with the SOA. After I put your kit on in the rear with stock springs how much lower will I be, or will I be able to set it up to be basically level. If it is lower I'd like to avoid having to order another pair of lift springs for the rear. Could I run the 'Burb springs and have that bring the rear up to the level of the front? Thanks, I just need to get my ducks in a row before I start ordering springs.

Using my kit... you gain 7".. so if you went SOA + 2.5" AAL's , you will most likely need a 2.5" block in the rear...

sorry I just saw the post, Andrew..... been busy today.....

Andrew, If you want you could go with Chevy Burb springs in the rear. If you take the overload out you should be setup for the 2.5 in lift. My waggy had the Rancho 2.5in lift on it when I bought it. I set up the rear to match the lift when I do the SOA 60 up front. Plus the burb springs will move the rear axle back 3 to 3.5 inches. If your are wanting or needed to move the rear. Just some more food for thought. :D
