kyleag89 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I am ordering the Rustys 3" kit. I wanted to know from someone who bought this kit before what exactly it comes with. It says it has the rear full length aal and U bolts but does it come with centering bolts? (if you even need them I don't know). And do you need the leaf spring clips? Also does it include new bolts for the shocks, because mine are rusted and will probly break when I take them off. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyleag89 Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 The rusty's kit has the same shocks and coils as the others but offers a full lengh aal, and $70 cheaper. What is wrong with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakal Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 x2. rusty's is just that. quality control absolutely sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleag89 Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Ok I guess I will go with Hell Creek, since that seems to be a higher quality product. How long did it take you guys to install the kit? Also anyone recomend ordering anything additional to the kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleag89 Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 One more question I forgot.. Are the XJ and MJ rear shackles the same? Mine are very rusty and one has a hole in the middle so while I am doing the lift I will replace them. I was thinking a 1" extended shackle so it will give me a little extra in addition to the aal. I also put a lot of weight in the back of my truck so it will also help with that. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 MJ shackles are longer than XJ shackles. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james750 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 XJ shackles are shorter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleag89 Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Ok well I need to replace the shackles. Will the cherokee shackles bolt on without mods? If so what lengh would I need to buy in order to be the same stock lengh or longer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Shackles designed to lift an XJ up 1 inch should be pretty close to stock MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajsmj Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 too all the guys trashing rustys springs, i installed a set of 4 inch leafs and 3 inch coils a year ago, they are good springs, i wheel a few times a month and they are working great, and the customer service is great too, when installed them i had a problem lining up the leafs and the guy at rustys gave me a few tips to line them up. don't judge someone on one or two bad experinces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
