Re: Lowered the 65 The Free Way

Offroad and 4x4 shops are the best places to get the Jeep springs. They get them from doing lifts on Jeeps and usually toss them because they end up with so many. I've heard of guys getting them for free as they're relatively worthless. I paid $25 for some a while back from my local 4x4 shop. At a junkyard, you'll have to remove them yourself. No big deal, but why go to the trouble if the offroad shop has them laying around already out.

With them being so cheap, I'd swap out your cut coils for some for sure. What happens if you hit a big bump and those springs of yours no longer remain seated? There's nothing keeping them in place except the truck's weight. It just seems too much like tempting fate to me.
