I am looking to do a SOA on my cj-8 with JY leaf springs. I found Old Man Emu stock height leaf springs for a good price but i have never seen any in action. Anybody ever seen any on the trail and if so how did they work? Thanks
 
I've always heard those were good flexy springs that ride nice.
 
Well

I did research on those as I was looking for a good riding spring. They are consider very good (perhaps the best) for spring under applications. Not considered suitable for spring over though.

You can make your own spring over packs out of stock YJ springs. Here's an online article talking about that

That article has you cutting a main leaf but you can use the second leaf out of an XJ pack under the YJ main leaf but they will wear out quickly with gears and big tires no matter what you do.
