I thought they might be old stock lying around but luckily they turned out to be new. Yeah I already checked and they were manufactured Q4/07.

Old Man Emu suspension is a great system, the combination you are putting together will give you enuff clearance fro those 33". Another of caution regarding your tires, check the manufacturing date on these tires anything above 48 month is useless and will not last very long.

Its halfway between AT and MT. Also I have a Wrangler thats why I didn't go with Rancho and Billstein and instead went with an OME, DPG and JKS setup. Also 2" BL is overkill since with the 1.25" and 2.5" I have more then enough clearance for rock crawling yet alone mall crawling. A 2" BL would also show on a Wrangler while a 1" is barely noticeable. Since I am doing the combination of BL and SL the shaft drive angle won't be effected. Thats the advantage of buying from specialized Jeep guys, they know the Jeep inside and outside with its limits. Tires wise I wanted an MT thread since its more aggressive and these Hankooks got pretty good reviews. They are supposedly as capable as BFG MT's yet quiet as AT's. I did a lot of research in Jeep forums thats why I got this ultimate setup. Rancho's and Billstein mean very little in the Wrangler world. Stallion, how come 6 not 5?? You carry 2 spares?

Good luck.
