I have a CJ that has CJ BDS main leaves and stock yj leaves underneath, making up a hybrid pack. Well its been 4 years now and the pack is looking like an S. I really like the double wrap leaves. Can I get a set of BDS YJ stock leaves and they just swap out? This is a spring over rig and I need a flat pack, thats why I thought it best to just try a YJ set. But will lengths and pin location for the perches be right?:popcorn:
 
BDS vendor I talked to said that they have NO stock height YJ springs. 1.5" is the smallest. Rubicon Express has a stock height spring, but, it's not "recommended" for SOA.
 
When I had my YJ, I built it SOA with stock YJ springs with the main leaf from an S-10 mixed in the pack. They were super flexy and kept a real solid ride on the highway. They maintained their shape during some moderate wheeling (that's all I ever got to do with it before selling it).
 
I'm running stock yj leaves in the front of mine. Bought them new around 4 years ago...pretty much built the rig different every year since. Still in great shape.

On another note Full Traction makes a 0" spring for spoa applications. Buddy ran it and liked it, I don't know much other than that.
