Depending on timing/money, I may be interested in your RE 5.5s. I'm running 4.5s with a 1.5" spacer and no isolator, so the 5.5's ought to have me at the same height if I put an isolator back in, then I won't need my spacers.
Jim, are you talking about the Fox shocks you put up for sale a while ago? I remember seeing them and wishing I had money. Then when I had money I didn't think they were still up for sale, now I have no money again...
Yea... They're still for sale but not at the same time haha. It'd be sweet to have a buyer lined up as soon as I take them off, but I can't take them off until I get my jeep taken apart ready for the new ones.Depending on timing/money, I may be interested in your RE 5.5s.

i would love to hear more opinions on the deaver coils. i think my rusty's 6.5's are going to be too big for my deaver rears....

WTF? No, they aren't all progressive. Look at Rusty's springs, they don't have one end with coils wound tighter than the other like was previously posted. :lecture:

Take a picture of them and post it here. He may have just bought rustys springs to replace them. My rusty's have the model number on one of the coils.

just bought emgot the guy down to 75 bucks... hope ill be happy with em, i think i will... as soon as they get here a pair of RE 5.5 coils will be up for sale
RE 5.5s im guessing...
If you want more lift than Deaver 5.5's then you need to go back to crawling son. Stay low slung and stable...
