Just curious, just saw a set on craiglist for $10 and I'm looking at something to match the grand cherokee v8 coils I picked up for the front for an inch or two. Might just be for towing.

Thinking shackles at the moment on a set of new old-stock cherokee rear leafs now (another deal).

I put some on my 87 and it did a little I'd say maybe a 1/4" or 1/2" but that was it on my rear leafs but they also have a 3.5" AAL

I have the Monroe sensa trac load adjustable shocks with a coil spring wrapped around them. They do make the ride a little springy, so carrying weight in back helps with that. I got 3/4" lift from them. Just enough to bring my worn leafs up to near stock height.

Probably not worth it for a 2 inch lift on NOS leaf springs. I'll go with shackles then.
