Up-Country Questions...

1. Has anyone here upgraded from stock suspension to Up-Country? Are the UC leaves more resistant to sagging over the stock leaves?

2. Is there a source where new UC leaves and coils can be purchased from, other than the dealer?
 
My upcountry leaf springs sagged at 48,000 with extended shackles. I think extended rear bump stops would have been a good idea. The upcountry spings are 1" lift over stock and have a slightly firmer (higher spring rate) ride. Grand Cherokee V-8 coils will lift an XJ about 1" and you could add one or more Dakota or XJ leaves for the rear. I have also seen upcountry springs on the for sale page.
