im not a big fan of spacers either, but those look better then regular ones. those are even welded to the body... although id much rather have longer springs.

thnx

Should fit, RBV People swap Bronco II springs for F150 springs, and Jeep people well.... swap XJ springs for F150 springs. I guess what that goes to say is.... You might want to look into F150 Springs.

If you talk to a ranger junkie, they'll tell you to swap your springs for either Chevy S10, Chevy Fullsize, or Ford Explorer.

There are better options than ranger leaf's, they're extremely prone to sag.

It cost me nothing to do besides the $3 on paint.

For 84-98 Cherokees use *703 injectors
For 99-01 Cherokees use *784 injectors

The difference is the connector type.
