I just ordered the Rancho RS44148 leaf springs. Very little out there about them but all info is positive. They are rated for 1.5". Mine are being installed today so I should know more later.

Thanks guys!
Those are 30x9.5x15.
If I could do it all over I would have went with 10.5 instead of 9.5.
I have the JKS ACOS system on the front. Will probably end up leveling it off when I get the time.

The Doorman right here.
I also used the stock shackle and bolt from that page.

As far as shocks I plan on using BPE's (bar pin eliminators)on my existing ones.
