I just emailed him. If he responds I will go from there....
For some reason people on Craigslist do not like paypal, wonder why

Rusty uses OEM tie rod ends, but the bar itself is way bigger than stock so it won't bend

So far only Dukie and I would be able to make that time. I think we'll revisit the idea next week maybe on the 22nd / 23rd, or wait until the holiday passes

Wait isn't the 22/23rd the days you were already trying to do? I'm confused... What about the 29th?

My only available days this month are Dec 19, 26, and 30.

These are advertised as Rubicon Express 3.5" springs. Thoughts?
(Oh, and I talked the guy down to $175 for both packs)

looks legit and in great shape. They're def RE spring packs, and I think i see the "63" peaking out from behind that sticker (product code for the 3.5" packs is RE1463)

Does this mean you're no longer doing a bastard pack?

Yessir. I appreciate all the help you've given through my learning process, but I wanna get this done before Feb, and it's a good deal. How do you know they're RE?

Sweet. I like your confidence, cause I'm nervous after buying that last set. Those already have a new new home, so I just need to pick these up Monday. Then I need shocks, bumpstops, and adj track bar, and I'm good to go.

Now my sale list is at:
Stock ZJ front coils (non-UpCountry)
S10 Blazer leaf springs (look good) with the eyes cut off
ZJ gas skid, cut to fit XJ (may be spoken for. waiting for reply from someone here)
TC drop (Pucks, I think 1")

After the lift, I'll have some broken, worthless stock leaf springs, and my stock steelies. The wheels have surface rust, and the tires give me hell on the road in rain, but they haven't failed me since I bought it in April. They've taken about 15k miles, mud, dirt, rocks, burnouts, going airborne, and who knows what else..still no flats lol

welp, My local tire place that is cheap and trustworthy won't touch my tires cause of the "R" word, and the other small shop wants 30$ a tire to mount and balance.

I would have just bought tires from a big name store if I had know it was gonna be this much hassle.
