How about a 4" rear lift and a 3" frt. lift...This combo works very well. have the spring built to be a progrssive spring pack. Some shops will semi-tapper the spring ends too. The 4/3 set up might seem a lot of lift but keep in mind that the springs well settle about 1/2" to 1" in about a year.

okay, I'll keep that in mind and make sure they can do.

 

I have not heard a bad thing about them yet, besides one account of bad service on a custom application. The springs all the way up to 6" of lift ride great.

I've got a set with 4" of lift. No complaints. My only problem was that I recieved the wrong front bushings.

What lift will you need for 33 inch tires, and does anybody have any pictures of the lifts?

Seems to be a lot of interest in new springs. Any chance of a group purchase at a discount?

I have them on my 70 all the way around. there great. I went 3" and wish I would have went 5"on rear and 4" on front. It sounds like alot but isn't when you get them on.

 

How much do the Alcans cost?

Were you able to get the correct bushings from Alcan or did you get them from someone else? Also, did the Jeepster sit level with 4 inches front and rear?

I was partially responsible for destroying the bushings and I needed to run the next day so I bought some more locally and never asked for help from them.

Cost: fair, Shipping: unfair
Level? It works for me

I have 3 inch Alcans. I like them. They have been on for about a month now. I had the same problem with the bushings being
wrong. I still need to get the bushing for the upper shackle. Only took a couple of weeks to get them. I dont remember the
exact cost but it was under 3 bills. Shipping to Cali was around 50 bucks. I am also running 31inch tires which fit well, for the
height. I don't have a body lift either. I'd say get em...you'll be happy you did....

I have had a set of alcan's on my jeepster for about five years and still like them. It seems people are having trouble with bushings. I had my eyelets of the front springs made for a toyota 2" wide spring then used poly bushings and in the rear used polys for a cj with 2 and half inch wide spring. I also had them due a military wrap on both front and rear springs. For those people during a add a leaf, been there, done that, IT is a waste of money. Go with custom springs.

Thanks for the info. I'll follow up with the 3/4 combo and make sure they get the right bushings in them. The cost was $195 each/rear and $145 each front. Contact # is : To order just call us at 1-888-321-0870.

 

There is an old post that covers all of this. I'll look
