I don't know but I imagine they are the same spring.

I love my rusty's lift and I think it is a good value but the info you get from them is often confusing and contradictary.

You can call and ask but you might just get more confusion. If you are looking at the OME coils he sells they are 1.5 inch lift so you need to add a 1.5 inch spacer to get the same as you get with the frankenlift.

Just get the kit and ask for the OME rear shocks (50 bucks more) or get the long travels from allJ's.

Then they are 2.5" minus the sag. As rustys age they sag a little, maybe a 1/4" or so. You can do a clevis lift or strut plate lift to offset it.

I have a 3 ring lift on my jeep. You will get UBJ contact on the springs with this much lift. Go with 2 rings and it will comp for the sag.

The three ring caused me to go to Al's A arm for lifted libby's. Worth it though cause als are servicable and oversized so I don't have to worry about losing a wheel.
