Default zj v8 coils...

I was wondering if the stock front coils from a v8 zj would provide any lift for a stock xj and if so how much.

I have a Teraflex 2" spacer lift for a 93-98 ZJ I'll sell you. $65 bucks shipped to you. PM me if you want it. The kit new sells for $150.

I just re-read you post, the kit I have would work for the front only on an XJ.

dont answer questions you dont know the answer to. besides there has to be at least a few people on here that have done this coil swap so i thought i'd ask, is that not what a forum can be used for?
