aal or full packs?

well guys i am finally a jeep owner again. i picked up a 95 xj 4 door five speed for $350 the engine runs like a top 4.0 ofcourse and the trans shifts great. only thing wrong with it is the tires are seperating and causing a really bad vibration at low speeds about 10 feels like its going to rip the wheel out of your hand lol. anyways i have 1500 to spend and i want to do this lift right and i was wondering if the full leaf packs are worth the extra 100 bucks i am only going three inches and i am going with the rustys offroad kit that comes with wheels tires and the full pack leafs.

I consider AAL's a temporary lift. Full packs are much better.

An AAL not only has to lift the rig by itself, it has to fight with the less arched stock leaves.

Go with Full Packs. I put the Rusty's 3 inch Full Spring Pack lift on and I love it. I have seen pics of AAL lifts where the rear still sagged.

My lift install

It actually amazes me that this question gets asked at least 3 or 4 times a week on this forum.
