Snitty posted on tug's that he has a 2" lift by using truck leafs. I'd like to find out more about that for my buddy's yj. Snitty, what kind of truck springs did you use and what other things did you have to do? :-D [addsig]

Chevrolet truck springs... i'm not quite sure which truck... but i know they use center spring holes... so they work great... i went to a junkyard and picked up two spring packs for $15.. i pulled the pack apart, cut the springs to proper lengths, sanded them, painted them... then I had myself a $15 add-a-leaf worth 2 inches... quite easy... I laid out the right springs i wanted... I ended up replacing two leafs in each pack... it took less than a day to complete the entire process... everything from driving to the junkyard 10 miles away from home, to pulling my lifted jeep out of the garage which is 10 miles in the other direction[addsig]
