An option is finding a local spring shop and having them make either just an extra leaf (should be able to do a military wrap). This should be cheaper than either buying an aftermarket spring pack for some pricey customer mail order stuff. A couple guys in our club have used a local spring shop (it's in Zanesville, so probably not a good choice for the Cincy crowd), but they have had good luck and prices are good.

I need to do something about OBA and wire in the solenoids for the ARB.

Other than that, yes

I'm thinking seriously about the ARB HO unit to start with until I get more time. Then I can transfer the ARB unit to the truck for other farm/roadside rescue duty.

With work being the way it is, I don't have a lot of time right now for evening projects. Come winter/spring it might be different.

Scott, your compressor should still be used; I guess I just need to get it off of you soon so you dont have to keep up with it

Springs sound like the same issue I had. Bent my front leaves and didn't want to go shackle reversal. I am running 2 inch BDS military wrap springs, but it is more lift than I want. I just hope I can beat them up enough to make the sag some.

There is a spring shop in Fairfield. I think its on Seward Rd. They mainly work on commercial type vehicles but they will also work on 4x4s. I had some spring work done there on my old Durango. They were very reasonable as well.
