I have had a RE Superlfex 3.5 on my 97xj for about 2 years now. I carry a big cargo box http://share.shutterfly.com/osi.jsp?i=EeBMmLJy4atXRg and a co2 tank and a toolbox etc, plus roof rack with 32" tire and a hilift on rear of rack... anyway, the back of course sat low, so I put a RE shackle on it... I think it was 1.25" and it put the back just a tiny bit high, which I like... it really is almost prefectly level. So I have a good friend who is getting ahold of some new 4.5RE leaves, and said would swap me even up. In a year or so, I want to go up about an inch and go from my 32 to 33's.
what do you guys think?
I am leaning towards keeping my 3.5's cause they are broke in, ride great, flex great, sit perfect and I don't have to touch any tools. Con's are I will need to buy new 4.5 springs in a year or so. (maybe orbital eye non RE?)
Does anyone think I will gain anything by getting the 4.5's? I guess the only plus I see is I should just have to add a shackle in a year when I decide to go up. Con's are I don't know where I will end up ride hieght and I think will not flex as well, and ride rougher.
Thanks for listening to my babble....
