1948 - 1963 Jeep Wagoneer 8-leaves, Front Leaf Spring ZX509126TF Each
$105.99

These part numbers and prices are from JC Whitney...want to stay spring under, whatcha think about the 8 leaves all the way around?

Yeah, I know the Waggy thing is a dead horse, and yes I've spent hours searching, and only come accross one thread where someone didn't like these springs...So help a brotha out

Ummmm.....

Usually people who install waggy leaves use them in a SOA application. Otherwise wtf is the point? Add more flex to a stock setup?? Your post lost me and i have no clue what you are asking. The 10 leaf packs would probably flex better and have thinner springs. Plus yoiu can take them apart and take out a spring if you need to.

Max I'm going to go is 35's, so I figure with the stock Waggy's (2" lift), 1" body lift, TJ Flares ...33's should be easy 35's with some bump stop manipulation

48 to 63 would be a willys wagon, and the springs on them were only like 1.25"or 1.5" wide. if you are using these in a yj, your springs are already 2.5" wide, and the wagon leaves will be very stiff under your jeep... wagoneers were made from 63-91 those seem to be the desirable springs
