I ordered my triple rates thru rebel offroad In feb. and marcus informed me of the rk issues about a week after I ordered and said that rk made wrong style and wont have the triples til late march. He said he would ship me the progressive til the triples are available. Just got email today stating they are available. But marcus said he is shipping the rears only cause I already have the fronts in triple rates. So I'm confused! And mine doesn't look like Just Q's springs.

let me know what kind of lift you get. I have not been able to get an answer from anyone what the actual lift with the 1.5" springs will be.

I got the 1.5 installed today. The triple rates ride great. Here's the difference in the length of 3.5 and 1.5

Update-Finally after a 4 day debate and pic swaps back and forth with marcus at river city offroad and Rock Krawler they come to realize that they were NOT triple rates and are sending me the correct springs. And hopefully get them by end of the week. Wow, ordered on feb 11th and may recieve CORRECT items the first week of April. Customer service and quality control has some issues in my opinion!! May have to rethink my future build!
