budget boost ???

right now im debating what to do. im going to go with either the re or rustys budget boost. im leaning more towards rustys because it comes with new coils and full aal. the re comes with a brake extension though. i wouldnt think i would need that with a 2in lift. my main concern is my leaf springs are pretty flat. should i get factory replacements or just put the aal on???? i found replacements on rocky road for $85. thanks guys

if the leafs are shot, look into a baster leaf set up out of an s-10, but the aal should be good for you though, if it is still sagging you can throw another Cherokee leaf in the pack. and if you plan on going bigger in the future

Not to hi-jack, but does anyone have thoughts on the new leaf pack....combined with an AAL from the original pack? I am thinking maybe to pick up the $85 leaf packs, then use just the longest leaf from the old pack to beef it up. Then ZJ coils in the front.

It's a family rig...no offroading. I'm running 235s. I just want a slightly more aggressive stance. Ride quality (and saving $$) is also important.

paying $170 for a pair of stock leaves from rocky road plus shipping will be an awful lot of scratch for stock height springs. I would just put the full length AAL in and work with that.

You need to make sure they are V-8 ZJ UPCOUNTRY coils to get a full 2 inches of lift out of them.

I put standard v-8 ZJ coils in and got between 5/8 and 3/4 of an inch out of them. the spring rate is very nice on them though.. If you can't verify that they are upcountry and want the full 2 inches, then just get a spacer for the front.
