btw, if i did get the RC with the AAL would it sag? and would it be hard for someone who doesnt know what theyre doing to do?

 

Its not a real Rough Country lift or its used for 200 dollars.


Like I said, stop by a spring shop if you know of one and talk to them or like I said the longer the AAL the better.

 

It probably will sag, even my rough country 3 inch lift with full leaf packs sagged down to 2 inches. If it does its no biggie though, just get a lift shackle to even it back out again.

 

They do charge a heavy handel fee but with tax and fee it was $227.99 OTD . It comes with u-bolts for both axles and shock boots,shocks,aal,coils. I did an S-10 bastard pack on rear instead of the aal. Cost $40 for bastard pack. Had to replace all hardware that didnt come with kit. All in alll I have about $300 into it. Im ordered Skyjacker discos and steering stabilizer which came to another$150. When you break off the rear shock bolts on the top ,and you will. Just drill a 5/16 hole in floorboard and run 3in long bolts through from the top to mount your rear shocks. Thats the easiest way I could find. Silicone the bolt heads and washers beforhand so no water gets in.Good luck. If you have any questions on the lift pm me cause I learned a few tricks for making it go alot easier. You dont need spring compressors for the front .

 

is there anyting to ake the place of the new rear shocks that WOULD come with the RC if i had another 300 doll hairs ?

 

You can buy standalone Rough Country shocks, or one gentleman posted a way to make stock monroe shocks off a YJ work in his Budget Boost writeup.

 

it comes with 4 shocks but im talking new springs

 

wait it means leaf springs LOL nvm

 

Like sway bar quick disconnects? JEEZ you can get really nice Gen2 RC discos for $70 and a new steering stabilizer for $30

 

ok...if you had to do it again would you get an add a leaf or what would you do

 

just spend the extra $100 or so and go 3" rough country

 

Why do that when you can half-*** it and hate yourself later for $100 less?

 

budget 3" lift that will actually last?

rusty's coils-100
s10 springs for bastrd pack-40
parts store longer brake lines-80
part store longer shocks-100
parts store center bolts-10
parts store u-bolts (if you dont trust reusing your old ones)-30


total is $360 and you have a reliable lift that you dont have to worry about ripping the brakelines if you flex it out....

 

ok ok...so is it better to get an AAL or a bastard pack cause i hear that if you get already soft leafs then it wont sag

 

no it will
