Default I have RK 2.5 lift and have a few questions.

1. I have the older lift without the triple springs.
2. My rear springs are bending. What would fix that? Track bar and control arms?
3. Maintance. How often should I check my joints and what is the best maintain procedure. I broke one of the Greece zeros on my front control arm. How often should I Grease them.
4. Is it worth upgrading to the new triple springs.


Thanks.

Ps this is the 2.5 flex kit.

I have correction wedges for my rear springs. You can buy a new zerk fitting at any auto parts store. I grease mine every oil change or so and check jam nuts too.

Coils bending - coil correction wedges will help. Another think to check is rear pinion angle; should be about 2 degrees below the rear drive shaft angle. You may need to roll axle forward. Post up pictures.

I usually give all my zerks a shot every oil change.
