The other thing about this approach is we are not limited by how high we can go in the rear. The IFS stops going up way before the back end runs out of options.

Re-arched springs also have a tendency to fall back towards their original configuration. In the link above, the individual replaced both main springs AND added add-a-leafs. Not quite representative of a simple re-arch.

He also quoted $3K for replacement packs (incl labor, which is against his original stance of "low cost"). $3K is a little excessive for spring packs. A quick look showed about $300/end for spring packs. And I would assume the same "parts" (bushings, u-bolts, shackles, shocks, ect) would be needed for either re-arching or OME Springs and either manner would give a comparable lift. In the end, I wonder how much ahead this guy really was.
