Does anyone have the OME 948 rear springs? I ordered these along with the 926 front which are fine for my gaser, but iam hving second thoughts about the rear springs. Should i have gone with te 947's? i never tow anything and want a plush ride on the streets.

I just ordered a set today. My Rusty suspension is way to soft right now. It sagged quite a bit and if I hit a good dip in the road, the rear end bottoms out. Can't wait to get the 948's installed. :D

I think the Frankenlift uses them.

I run the HD's in the rear with the new OME Long Travel Shocks and I think the ride is great. Not too stiff at all in my opinion and I don't tow and run my KJ fairly empty most of the time. I was concerned about the ride of the HD's on the front and rear, but have been very happy with both since installing my lift.

I also run the HD rear springs and I like them. :)

I had the Medium duty springs on the front and it did sit alittle nose down. I ended up getting the Rustys springs for the front and now it sits perfectly level.

You could do a clevis lift on the front to help level things out, but mine still sat nose down with the clevis lift. :?
