UMMM I think you might be mistaken.
my stock 99 leaf pack has 4 leafs in it. and pretty much every XJ I have seen in the junkyard has had 4 leafs as well.
sounds like this guy has an AAL

this xj has a 2 in teraflex coil spacer and i thought it had 2in shackles but the more i have learned from here the shackles are stock so the lift had to come come from somewere so i started lookn and saw 5 spring but they are all the same thickness so maybe lifted pack ill post pick tomorrow.

yea I just did a lift on my XJ yesterday and just to make sure I wasnt talkin out my azz I took notice of the stock leaf count and just as I thought I remembered it had 4 leafs stock.
it now has 5 but 3 of them are from an S10 p/u and it also has a 4" lift now instead of a 1" sag

im pretty sure mine has 5 leaves, maybe its the years that make it different

one4fester

it seem that i may have been dreaming i had 5 leaf springs upon closer inspection there are only 4 but its a good thing i looked it seems i may have a center pin sheared and leaf shifted to one side hope it last to the week end

What kind of shock is that? I see duct tape....i think.

one4fester

air shocks po used duct tape to secure air line

Ahh no wonder they looked different.

How do they hold up to off roading?

one4fester

only had it a couple of months no good wheeling time they ride ok i guess.
