Default Longer shocks to my XJ

Hi:

I read that I can use the Front YJ shocks to gain about 3" longer than stock on the XJ. It's that true? I'm going to buy the set of coil springs for 3" to used in front and make the s10 leaf pack on the rear. Can I use the rear YJ shocks on rear for that hight? If not, which one can I use for the 3" on rear? Thanks guys, I'm new on this excelent hobbie......

They have excellent prices on shocks for a 3in lift.

Before you order PM Grimus99XJ on here and he may be able to get you a discount he works there.

The thing is that I live in Puerto Rico and the shipping for the shocks are high. I can found the OEM YJ shocks on a local auto parts....

I for one have never heard the use of YJ shocks will work on an XJ so it boils down to how much you trust your source.
