I have a very similar problem on my 98 XJ. But, mine isn't just loose. The one on the passenger side snapped on one side of it. I have been having a hell of a time finding a replacement down where I live.

I do know what they are for but the problem I have is the location that I live. I have to drive 30 min to get to a regular auto parts and they don't carry them and there are no off road shop around. does anyone if I can get the on line and if so where???

I have been told that your spring pack can separate or at least each of the spring can become miss aligned. So far I haven't had any movement in mine and I have been missing one of the clamps on the passenger side for almost 2 years.

I snapped one completely off one time (on my '76 Power Wagon, not on my XJ) and I wrapped it with bailing wire and a BUNCH of duct tape and was able to make it home without the springs falling apart. I got a new one from my local off-road shop.
