I am redoing the leaf springs, and I measured my front end from the middle of the wheel to the start of the fender(It's stock), and got around 20" on each side. So I believe I have around a 2.5" lift in the front. The back is sagging badly, but still comes out to around 17.75 because it's lifted. So I currently have a shackles lift, but I'm hoping to go back to stock shackles because I don't like how my current ones stick out a ton. I am thinking of going with these from quadratech: https://www.quadratec.com/p/crown-au...okee-xj/7-inch

I'm told the 7" arch variant is too rough, but the 6 3/8" arch ones might be ok. has anyone put these on their vehicle? What was the ride like, and did it lift your rear at all? I sometimes carry a motorcycle on the back, but for the most part my car is not towing any weight.
Also, I figure if I need to, I can grab these as well. Although it's not my first choice https://www.quadratec.com/p/crown-au...che-mj-rt21045

Thanks!! If anyone has any other suggestions on how to even out my suspension, I'd be glad to hear them

 

I had them on my 96 before I lifted it. The only difference between the HD and Standard, is the HD is actually the Upcountry springs. The Upcountry had 1.5" higher rear suspension than regular. Other than that, they are just OEM style springs.

 

Depending on what you want as a result consider the Old Man Emu springs. Not inexpensive but reported to be the best riding springs for a mild lift.

 

You mean these guys?

I ruled them out because they look like they would be stiff on pavement. You think they would be good daily drivers? Because they are the perfect height

 

+1 on the OME suspension. Great ride for the last 30k miles or so.

 

I can't give you road test results as I have not finished my '91 XJ project but I was impressed with the apparent quality of the parts. When I bought the red '91 it had a terrible budget lift. I have some details on the suspension work in my build thread. (see signature line below)

I used the hybrid kit identified in the link below. It may be appealing to get a kit with nearly everything you might want and these guys will actually answer the phone and help with your questions. I removed one leaf to achieve about a 2" lift.

Something like this? It's been driving nice on the daily?

 

I have the leafs on my stock xj. They ride better than my old worn out ones and still am happy with them 2yrs later.

 

They are pretty smooth on the road?

 

yeah, can’t tell the difference when it was stock
