Purchasing 4" Superlift leaf springs by themselves

[Hartman]

Where can I find Superlift 4" lift springs that I can purchase by themselves? I'm only finding them in the whole kit. I just need the leafs. Thanks.

Contact Margie, Kenny or Ashley at www.rockymountainsusp.com

Let them know that Brian Green with www.nukinfutz4x4.com referred you. They will take care of you for sure and with a great price.

Kenny was a huge help for me, and ask them about the Adventure Tour 2003 vid, man it rocks, it's like $16.


P.S. I'm also the editor for www.nukinfutz4x4.com

Do you guys know how much they run normally?

 

[Trckmagik]

Sorry, I dont remember. They have the best prices around though. Give them a call and let them know you want either Skyjacker or Superlift 4" lifted springs. You may tell them its for a 1994 Explorer as the price may be cheaper. You never know. And yes they will fit your 1995.
Let us know what they say.

I called them and they told me $250 for the Superlift and $392 for the Skyjackers. Seems a little steep, even with a discount for mentioning you Brian. Not sure if it's gonna be worth it to me.

why don't you just do a spring-over in the rear and do some three inch lift spindle's in the front....dont you have 2wd spindles? then 2" with the torsion bars, thats 5 inches for only like $400

 

[Trckmagik]

I still think that if you do a spring over you will be 100% satisfied. I know it sounds like alot, but it it really isnt. 250.00 for a pair of leaf springs really is a good deal. I agree the Skyjackers are a bit high.

 

[Hartman]

I don't want to do a SOA because for one I don't want the vibrations, because I'm going to be doing more highway driving soon, and two I don't want to have to deal with the driveshaft length problems or axle wrap. I have enough axle wrap right now with 3" lowering blocks. Plus I do not need 5.5 inches of lift and I don't want that much because it wouldn't fit in my garage and I don't want to max out the t-bars in the front to match the rear height.

Hartman, have you looked into rebuilding your spring packs using f-150 leaves? If (someone more knowledgable than me please step in) you could then put a set of f-150 aals could that lift the explorer 4"? Either that or aals, + custom shackels a bit longer than the warrior shackles. If you were to build them out of good solid stock in the same way that the warriors are you would should never have a problem with strength.

I'm still exploring my options. I just want 4" out of the rear with a decent ride. I can imagine that an AAL that would lift the rear 4" would ride like crap. I might just get those Superlift springs, it would be much easier and it would probably eliminate the need for a 1" body lift that I was planning.

 

[Trckmagik]

I think the Superlift springs are your best bet. They go on very easy and you keep a much nicer ride than you would with AAL. Get Er Done

 

[CodePoet]

Yeah they would ride pretty bad. The combo of aal (2") and shacles though wouldn't be bad...comparable to mine which isn't bad in my opinion. Just throwing out ideas trying to help Can't wait to see the finished product
I agree with trckmagic though

I heard double AALs ride very bad.

 

[NOTAJP]

The best ride would be a spring over. You could take out a leaf to just gain 4" then work on traction bars. A SOA done right will cost you almost as much as the superlift springs. But then you would need shocks on top of that.

AAL+shackles are crap IMHO.

The superlift springs will ride better then the Skyjacker.

 

[Hartman]

Right now I'm leaning on the Superlift springs. Hopefully by mentioning Brian I can get the price closer to $200.

Just work with them. Ask em to hook you up and you will spread the word about their customer service. They really do have great service.
