Add a Leaf
Im currently installing a 4.5" lift on my 96 cherokee and i have the front done. But in the rear, the center pin on my leaf springs wont line up with the upper leaf when i jack the axle up to compress the springs.
Any advice on how to compress the springs easier and get the pin to line up?

Use a long rod and a couple of "C" clamps on the spring. put the center bolt in, then attach the axle.
