Jackrabbit41 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 So when I started by SOA swap last weekend I learned that my leafs were not stock. I had about 14 inches of lift. So now I need new leaf packs. I saw the ones on General spring but shipping Is almost 90$!!! Anywhere else sell them? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 HellCreek makes them too. be prepared for similar sticker shock. leafs are heavy. if your leafs are indeed lift leafs, you should be able to sell them and recoup some of the money. I hope that was hyperbole, since an SOA gives 6" and 14-6=more inches than any MJ leaf pack I'm aware of. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On lees it was 24 so no it was not s hyperbola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megadan Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Meaure from the top of the axle tube to the frame rail directly above it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackrabbit41 Posted November 25, 2015 Author Share Posted November 25, 2015 Meaure from the top of the axle tube to the frame rail directly above it. I already out the d35 back in, but I'll do that when I put in the new springs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So roughly 3" Lift leafs + The extra 2-3" of leaf + SOA + The thicker 8.8 tubes= about 10-12"~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megadan Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Honestly, I wish I lived closer to you because I have a pair of factory replacement leaf springs from GS on my truck that have maybe 7000 miles on them and I want a set of lift springs on mine now. I would gladly trade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would gladly trade! Still is probably worth it to cross ship trade. Spend sub $100 each on shipping vs $300-500~ on new leafs each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
