As my Wag might be becoming my daily driver soon, I'm looking into replacing all of the springs. Where could I order the leaf spring packs (preferably the 4" lift ones) without all of the other stuff that comes with kits? Or would I still have to have the other stuff even though I have the SOA? I was contemplating Rusty's 4 inch lift springs... Any suggestions? Thanks! -Zach

If you have posts on the rear springs like mine (75) you will have to either manufacture new rear mounts or re-build the spring packs. I am just re-building the spring packs at the moment. The Rusty's kit is really designed for 76 and newer. I am not sure about your other question, but I am sure the jeep gods will answer them smile.gif

You might try ESPO.com with your questions. They sell stock springs but they will arch springs to order. They sell them in pairs/sets of springs only without all the other doodads. I priced a set for my pickup at about $450. Price for your vehicle might be different.

Last I checked, ESPO can only build springs from stock to about 2" of lift. You can get custom springs from many different spring sources, National Spring being the most popular; but others have posted places they've had make them in the past.

Rustys, Skyjacker, Superlift, and Trailmaster offer 4" springs for the front and either lift blocks or a combo of lift blocks and AAL for the rear. Rough Country has the same in a 3" lift.

There's also the rear shackle flip option. I'd recommend talking to RiverBeast on this one as he has become the expert on it.
