  • 3 inch leaf springs

    I'm trying to figure out my best options for a 3 inch leaf spring for the rear of my xj. I've heard OME, BDS are good anyone here had any experience with the zone leafs?

    Keep in mind I have an 8.8 and with the perches I'm guessing it gained me a half inch over stock, maybe someone knows for sure what the difference is?

    I'm hoping for something with a good ride but can take some weight without squating to much, planning on hauling a trailer from time to time if need be, really want it to be right around 3 inches over stock if I can. I figure with all the weight I lug around some times It would prolly be good at 3.5". Also these will be mounting up to slider boxes.

      BDS will probably be the better ride of any of them. Little pricy though.

        Don't they have a lifetime use and abuse warranty though?
