[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 441007, member: 18789"] Different leaf springs or longer shackles. I personally prefer rake so that it doesn’t squat hard with a hardtop, passengers, heavy rear bumper, or any combo of the 3. I am surprised you have 2” of rake though. Seems like a lot unless it was originally a hardtop jeep that doesn’t have the hardtop on it while you’re measuring. I’d be surprised if any spring you buy does anything besides make the jeep squat. Most likely the front will go up higher than you are wanting from any spring on the market. Even the “stock” advertised springs from crown or similar end up lifting the jeep like 2”, so maybe look into those. Advertised 2”+ leaf springs usually end up more than that, and they don’t settle much in time either. [/QUOTE]
