I think I'm going to have to pick up a pair to help w/ some clearance issues w/ the long arms :D How much'd you get them for? And what're you running in the rear to balance it out?

$161.00 shipped to my door from JohnJohn at BIGoffroad.
My plans for the whole thing is this, I have a C4X4 front bumper with an M8000 winch. I'm going to run these springs with a 1 3/4 coil spacer. For the rear, I already have RE 1462 leafs, RE 1 1/4 shackle, and a 1" block. I'm going to change the 1" block to a 2" block and see where it sits from there. After all that I will adjust accordingly. Can't wait. :D

Hey Dan, I'll swing by tomorrow and check them out. I assume you have the day off! ;) I'm anxious to see how thick those things are. My RE 5.5 ZJ coils are too darn stiff!

Damn Dan!
When you get those bad boys on I may be able to roll right under your rig without ducking!

I don't care what time Dan. PM me your phone number again and I'll just call before I show.
 
I have them in with the 7.5" TJ rear coils in the rear. Had to use 2 Spacers in front to level it out :woohoo:

They are the stiffest springs RE has to offer at about 250 lbs/in. Almost exactly what you need if you are going to put on a winch bumper with winch. :D

That's my whole problem. With my winch bumper and winch, I have a very noticable rake in the front. I trying to level it more than I'm going for height. Your rig looks good by the way. Thanks for the pics. Definitely going to try to get them on this weekend.

Hey man that's a nice rig you got there. I am also interested in seeing some pic of your rear set up? Can you do a little write up about it? and what you kid of setup you got up front? Long arm (custom??) or you bought them if that's custom would like to see more pic of that too. you got TJ rear flares on the rear, but from the pic it doesnt seem like you cut them for the door piece or is it just me being crazy, because they look like one piece there is that true? My jeep looks like a lowrider compare to yours, lol.

Anyone take any measurements to get approx lift amount?

if so details ie bumper/winch etc

Right now I'm at about 7.5" to 8" and would like to ditch the spacers and be at a solid 8"

7.5" coils by themselves = 8.25" of lift :eek:
