But I still have to ask why?
Cheaper maybe a few bucks but you're giving up a better ride, better handling to go right back where you started from???
I'm sorry just never can understand the logic by using stock springs or shocks

Hey so I have a 2006 kj and my front springs are sagging alot but I already ordered the 3in rough country lift which uses only spacers to lift the front end of the truck. I'm new to this but I knowww thats not gunna work out to good with my sagging springs, what should I do to the front to match up with the rear? Or where could I get some cheap OEM(not ome) springs and just use the spacers? Any tips would be great thanks |

wholesalemopar.com is a pretty good site too. You'll just need the part number. |

Send back the lift ( which is one of the worst ones you can buy anyways) and just order new front springs for 160 bucks You're going to buy new shocks all the way around anyways so you can't figure that into the total amount spent Now you're only buying new rear springs and you're done BUT if you are set on using a spacer lift and new stock springs at the very least get Daystar its at least a half way decent lift so back to Why do something twice when once will do ? Sorry I know but  Sermon over and its not even Sunday...

Thanks for the advice, so i wont get new stock front coils but how about this (damm x-mas shoppings holding me back from the franky lol). the rough country lift was 300 for 2 rear coils 2 shocks and spacers for the front, so what if i scrapped the spacers for the front and got decent larger coils and shocks for the front instead but kept the rough country coils and shocks in the back? or are there coils and shocks cruddy too? (but if i should keep them, what coils and shocks should i gear up on the front?) thanks again for the advice, i trust your the guy to listen too. |

Grab two OME 927 front springs and some Bilstein shocks they're a little cheaper than OMEs You could run the rear for a while, replace/upgrade shocks at a latter date |

I wont need the spacers at all? just: Springs http://jeepinbyal.com/prod-OME_Spring_for_front_strut-615.aspx Shocks http://jeepinbyal.com/prod-BILSTEIN___Heavy_Duty_Front-672.aspx Thanks again, id be stuck in a pothole with a rustys lift if it wasnt for his forum haha |
