jeepdoggydogB Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 For those of us with a 3 inch lift and AAL's in the rear I am wondering if it would be worth it to pick a set of these up. Has anyone heard of this outfit? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jeep-Com ... enameZWDVW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone heard of this outfit? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jeep-Com ... enameZWDVW Yes, he posts occasionally on this forum, name is Tom, user name is Hellcreek. Web site: http://www.hellcreeksuspensions.com/ I'd have to ask him about these before purchasing; 3-leafs with a load capacity of 980 lbs., spring rate of 108, and arched that much to me does not add up to long life w/o sagging IMHO. These are comparable to the standard MJ springs that have 4 leafs. I'd aslo ask about the heavy duty (1440 lb) springs he has too. These are close to the metric ton spring capacity that have 5-leafs.

jeepdoggydogB Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 Ah thanks I figured anyone that made anything for a Comanche would know about this site. I am thinking about the metric tonne spring pack to replace the long AAL I have in the rear. I have had them for about 2 years and they are about due to start sagging . I was considering the rusty's 4'' but didn't want to go to 4 inches and have to give the OME shocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 That's what I did, replaced the 960# standards with new regulation 5-leaf 1500# metric ton springs a couple of years ago. When I first put them on they raised the rear about 3" but in two years have settled down about 1/2" as per normal. So they gave me about 2-1/2" of lift, which was about what I wanted. Ride well too......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feerocknok Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Tom's a super nice guy. Does alot of follow through, and real nice to work with. Was going to get a set, but have decided on coils instead, but these look very promising, and I'd rather go this route than Rusty's due to the altitude Rusty's has (which some want).

BLHTAZ Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I just found that eBay auction yesterday myself. I out a 3.5" RE Super Ride kit on with the long AAL's and have been wanting to go to springs. I think the 980# would be good for ours as it is being built strictly for looks/show and will never see any trails. Glad to hear the good stuff about Hell Creek as I was looking at their site last night as well. Maybe with a few people interested, Hell Creek would make a group buy deal??
