Looking for a used set of 4.5" or 5.5" spring packs for an XJ. Brand isn't a big issue, though RE and Rusty's would be preferred. Cheap = good. I could even trade for my 3.5" RE packs and maybe some cash depending on the shape of 'em. Just let me know what you have and what you want for them.
I'm located in West Chester, PA. Need someone local with these. Thanks!

I'm definitely interested. Would you be willing to do a trade straight up if you keep the AAL's? My springs have been on the Jeep since around January. Here's the best pics I can find of the springs:

Here's the only problem. I no longer have a place where I can do major work. Do you have a garage or something where we can swap out the springs? If not, we may be able to do it at my buddies house, about half way for both of us in West Grove, PA. He has air tools as well. We swapped out my 35 for a 44 in all of 2.5 hours. Let me know. Thanks.
PM sent as well.

yeah i have a garage.. how about this..
you can come and we can but the rustys leaf springs on. and you can decide if you want to put the aal's on or not.
i would like to get some money out of it so i would like the 50 bucks.
(dude thats a heck of a deal)
i have air tools too, when you put the springs on were they new in january?(are they sagged?)
im guessing it would take us an hour to install.. if you spray down your bolts a head of time. and everything goes as planned
im not going to put these on my jeep yet because i still need to get the tntcustoms u bolt eliminator kit.
my jeep is already lifted.
here are some pics of the springs before they were painted...
also i replaced the center pins..

PM'd you back man. I don't think my springs are sagging. The springs were brand new in January. I purchased them in my 4.5" Super Flex kit here at work.
The $50 is fine.. check the PM for further info with that. I might as well take the AAL's as well. It's like a 20 minute job per pack to take them apart, put the leaf in, then put them back together. No big deal. Thanks a lot!
