Default jk springs/shocks on an xj?
so i was thinking, and as the title says, would it be possible to throw on some jk springs or shocks and toss together some other components for a small lift?

what would the snags be for this sort of project?

the front jk coils wont lift the front at all. actually i think they'll lower it. but the shocks are good for a 3" lift
