Really? Aren't you the tard who is asking about leaf springs in the hardcore section? You do know that you can do a simple search to find what springs are similar to Waggy's, and they even have pictures. Waggy's 2" of lift, 2" of stretch (44" long). Cherokee 2" of lift, 6" of stretch (51" long). Dakota will give you over 2" (I think), about 10" of stretch (54" long). I willing to bet I can find Waggy springs in your area (or within a resonable distance). Get some XJ's, flip them over, get some Datons, some low profiles, and a chain steering wheel OG!

And turbo, don't get all twisted up. This is the hardcore section, and the info is already out there. All you have to do is type in leaf springs in the search criteria, and hardcore jeeps in the section. It will pull up more than you care to read. The reason people flame you is bc when you keep starting threads on a subject that's been covered and no one adds useful tech it floods the search pool for those who actually use it.

wich leafs for yj

When I first built my jeep I used stock waggy springs and did a shackle reversal , I use the ruff stuff offset shackles 1/4 and it rides and flexes great but the front sat too low after the winch and front tube was added , then after a couple wheeling trips I swapped them out to the 44044 and it actually flexes better and has a softer ride

OK, first off, Grand Wagoneer and Wagoneer (78-91) are both going to give you the same stretch and lift. Here are some leafs for you. Looks like J & W, they have 15springs. I would contact them and see about shipping them to you. Also, Atlas Towing (near you) should have some Cherokee springs if you wanted to go that route.

89820 is battle mountain nevada. And i think chicago would be to far of a drive for me. Thanks for the interchange list. I was aware of waggy leafs being used. I was mainly looking for other options because my local junk yard sucks.

I don't remember seeing that particular picture, but no doubt you've added a ton of info on the subject. I never inferred he drew it it, simply saying thank you. I forgot the internet is serious business

I had the wrong zip in there there. The information is still close to you, and I would make the drive. It just depends on what the springs are worth to you. You can have a set shiped for about $70, or drive a couple hours to CA for less then that.
