Manipulate/ bend it so it's not loose. Would help if you found a pin out diagram so you one which ones you were looking at exactly.

Depends on your budget. I'd start with Zone or Iron Rock, and they get more expensive as you go to higher end brands. If you're fancy, look at Deaver

Both, to an extend.

Your spring rate is defined as the amount of weight required to compress the spring 1". Lighter sorting rates are softer; heavier are firmer. Then there's the question of how many leafs are in the pack. A pack with many thin leafs will generally be better than a couple thick ones.

Your shackle angle affects how efficiently energy is transferred into the spring versus directly into the body.

Your shocks dampen the compression and rebound of the spring by converting mechanical energy into heat. Regarding shackle angle, the shocks only affect the energy that is transferred into the springs; not the force applied directly to the body.

Furthermore, there is a very wide variety of shocks available. Some are very soft, and others are incredibly stiff.

In the end, it's a balancing act.

assuming shackle angle is the same, would you rather have deaver packs and cheap shocks or kings and RC springs

I just ask cause I have RC packs and I would like to upgrade shocks, but im not sure its worth it!

If I could afford all the nice stuff, well, i wouldnt have a jeep
