Im thinking about the future and sagging springs so I have some questions and that would be great if someone chimes in

I have Rustys in the front and 2 ring clevis and i have 2 3/4" lift higher than factory (after 8000 miles), is that good heights with lift and clevis together?

Another question, Will I be able to get the same lift with OME HDs and 3 ring clevis?

Yes thats a good heighth I would say and although some will argue till the cows come home, yes with heavy Duty OMEs you will be right in that same area or should be. I know am with the ARB hanging out there

I have an opportunity to get some OME HDs, is it worth it to swap them out with my rustys?

My Rusty's lift was installed in January 05. My height is still great (no steel front bumper). No Clevis.

Soon the Rusty's lift will be for sale (getting the 4" lift).

I might eventually get rock lizard new bumper and Im keeping it forever :D Well my brother said he would get me something for christmas so I thought best springs would be a great investement. Like I mentioned my only concern is the height, if I can get as high with OME as i am with rustys?

Not sure on the Medium springs if you can get the same heighth, but the heavy dutys you can, plus if you are going aftermarket bumper later then you will need the HDs later anyways. So why not now right??
