Question Leaf Springs

I'm looking for a set of leaf springs to replace my blocks in the back.
should I go with add a leaf or full replacement?
I know the full replacement is better but is it really worth the extra money?

thanks in advance

Id say it depends on yoru driving. I have two 07 megas. One i did add a pack from thuren. The other i did the full leaf set. The full leaf set definetly rides more plush but it definelty kills the towing weight.

The biggest improvement in the ride will come from the rear leafs and yes it is dramatic. If your worried about losing a little bit of towing capacity get the Carli Long Travel Bags, I have them and they are also awesome!

Call Deaver Springs in Santa Ana, CA. They are the one that make most of the spring packs for the smaller off-road specialists. Tell them what you want in height and if you plan to tow and they can set you up perfect!
