    I am at the point where my rear leaf springs have lost the ghost. I see my options as either replacing them or having a spring shop work on them. I know what I be getting with the later, but has anyone had any experience with the "stock replacement" leaf springs that can be purchased from Krage or other similar suppliers.

    I am not really interesting much of a lift beyond the stock levels.

    I just talked with someone this weekend who was rather unimpressed with the ride.

    I'll see if I can contact him and find out more since the details of the conversation are a bit fuzzy. ;)

    Everyone I've heard of that has had springs re-arched said they went flat again in the next year.

    Espo has good prices: http://www.espo.com/

    Like Tim, I recommend Espo. Good prices, top rate customer service and quality product. I've used them on 2 previous non Jeep projects and was very satisfied.

    I've got 2 replacement springs from 4wd hardware and have been very happy. They come with bushings installed (be sure to check on that w/ competitors). My Cj-5A now sits even.
