I got 4 rear springs with 6 leafs in each (normally the fronts have 5 leaves). I was hoping to help alleiviate some of the sag in the front due to the V8, Tranny, and the winch and bumper.
Did I make the right decision? A buddy of mine said that I should have gotten 4 front springs because they are thicker metal even though they only have 5 leaves.
Anyone else have any input?

I bought another set of rear springs to use in the front. The rears have more leaves in them in the regular kit. Was this not the right thing to do?

:rolleyes: One thing you will learn quick here is there is no WRONG way to run your leaves...problem is you just dropped a butt load of cash to TRY that setup :laughing: It's all abotu trial and error man. I would say you are fine, but personally I would have done it right, with the fronts in fronts and the rears in rear. Just My opinion

This IS a Jeep you're talking about, right? And you actually wheel it?
