Re: Need softer springs...
As far as your lack of flex goes, question: are you using sway bar
disconnects? If not, you'll never get very good flex in the front no matter
what springs you have. To maximize flex/droop, I'd also recommend an
adjustable track bar in the front and no track bar in the rear of your YJ
(no track bar in the YJ rear is a debatable topic here).
Your springs may eventually soften up some with miles, maybe not. I've gone
thru several different brands of springs on my 92 YJ over the years, but I
like the Rubicon Express extreme-duty 4" springs the most so far. Great
flex and not too stiff. Around town I run the r9000s on setting 3-4,
offroad I usually drop them to 1-2.
Good luck.
