I have a 99 xj with a 3.5 re sf. the ride is too stiff and jostles the crap out of me and also squeaks like mad! If I spray the springs and shocks with lithium, it stops the squeak for about a week, but the ride still sucks. I have talked to a couple shops and can't get much god advice. The last one suggested the front coil springs might be too stiff. Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks.

 

Too stiff compared to what?

 

You need to get some real shocks.

 

what size tires are you running, and what air pressure?

 

also factor in shackle angle

 

Factor in noobness lol

 

3.5" on the stock arms? There is your problem. Every bump gets transmitted right into the uni-body because of the angle of the lower control arms. Lessen the angle and the ride will be less harsh.

 

Re sf comes with lowers.

 

Welcome to owning a lifted XJ.

 

 

My jeep rides great

 

X2 on the air pressure. That's a big factor. Let some out and you'll see lol.
