Can anyone give the EXCACT part number for V8 ZJ UpCountry coils? I've been looking but only find info on the plain V8 ones: the 4WD ones and the 2WD ones are the only ones I can find exact part numbers on. The exact number would definitely be a help as my local auto parts place can be a PITA.

According to Google this is what I found, Up Country Suspension: Front shocks: 4897412AC Front coils: 52001793...Tj

Tried it on the Advance Auto website and got nothing. Thanks for trying though I may just have to call and hope they have some idea of what I'm talking about

Did you ever find out what the part number was? I'm in the same boat now. Also, what price did you find them for?

Thanks,

If you are planning on buying NEW springs, Aftermarket lift coil springs and stock replacements often cost close to the same. In fact stock replacements often cost a little more for lower lift levels 1"-3". When people suggest the ZJ V8 springs as a BB alternative they are usually refering to using springs from the JunkYard, for the cost savings.

There is very little around here for decent pick-n-pull junk yards. Also the few I found don't have poo in the way of V8 GC's. If anything they have a few trashed I6 GC's that have been just about picked clean.
And smtippin, I found the same numbers as posted by Tj, however when I plug those in the auto parts store search engines, I don't get anything. I posted a similair thread on the GC portion of CF, got a link from Ol' Blue, and it said they were around $30-40. Personally sounded too good to be true, but upon further investigation it seemed legit, so I plan on calling my local dealer and seeing what he wants. Otherwise I'll be searching the jy's for a LONG time. I've come across one or two V8 GC's (rather what little was left of them), neither were upcountry.
