I have a '73 CJ5 running stock springs that are about three years old. I recently installed a TeraLow kit in the D20 and a LockRight in the front end. I guess the extra traction and slower crawling speed has inabled me to go places I could not before. Last weekend we went on a ride and I found out that I am not flexing much at all (I'm told it looked like a ballet move of some kind but at least I didn't flip). I need to get good springs. Raising the Jeep isn't my preference. I have a T15 which doesn't leave much of a driveshaft (it's at about 23 degrees now). Additionally, It's tippy where we ride and I don't really need the tire clearance. A couple of similar Jeeps I go with have BDS 2.5" springs and flex well. They are running the T90 so they don't have my driveshaft issues. How does the Rancho or SuperLift 1" lift spring flex/hold up? Are there any other options? Money is as always an issue.
