ZJ coils on an XJ Build
My 2001 Xj suspension at 179000 miles was starting to sag, I bougt some ZJ springs for the front and installed an add-a-leaf in the rear to level it out. The add-a-leaf was made from another set of XJ leafs but with only about 30k miles on them, I left the main leafs and the next leaf in the pack on the jeep and bolted the new-ish pack on under that.
Over all I gained about 2.25 inches from where it was sitting with the warn and sagging suspension. A test drive showed no abnormal or excesive driveline vibs up to about 80mph. Steering wheel is still pretty stright but im gonna align it next week after I put the new tires on.
Total install time: 5 hours
