1999 Ford Explorer Help(SUSPENSION)

[jonathanpantuck]

I have a 1999 Ford Explorer XLT. I recently got new Yokohama Geolanders with kyb shocks. I have the "gangsta lean" aka leaf spring problems. I need to get new leaf springs and after reading around 100 or so posts I am going to get my leaf spring from lmctrucks.com and my question is since I have the leaf springs that I want should I get the 3 leaf or 4 leaf and there is always so much info about the shackles; warriors seem the best but what i got from the jist of things is that it will raise the rear a little; is that correct.

I need two leafs and and other things needed to install them

2 leafs; leaf spring shackle kit and two centering pins; anything else I need; needed to order these yesterday; thanks for your advice

How bad is the lean? Possibly an add-a-leaf might cure it. I installed it on mine and it leans much less than it did before (there's less than 1/2" difference between right and left). There's a link in my registry for the post I used as a guide.

Which Geolanders did you get?
