Re: Need help finding low cost replacement lift springs 4-6"

They were $176 a piece, and I thought I was getting a deal... the Superlift springs came without bushings in them. Keep that in mind. I had purchased all greasable bushing from Offroad design, so it was not an issue, but I was suprised when they arrived. I researched this quite a bit... Jegs had good pricing and quick shipping. Another site called Jackit.com had some good pricing, funny name - but it saved me a little coin. Good luck!

Right? I was expecting a few hundred bucks for the swap, they quoted me $1200 initially, and now with the bushings they're quote is almost $2400. I told them hell no. I would do this myself normally, but I just don't have the time while working and raising a 3 year old and being a single dad.

I ended up buying the Tuff Country 6" lift leafs with urathane bushings for $305 for the pair after their promo pricing and discount code. I'm just going to tell them to leave the rear alone and I'll deal with that at a later date/time.
