Default taller front springs for 2001 grand cherokee ?

I installed a 2-1/2" budget boost lift on my 2001 Grand Cherokee and I like it alot yet the front sits lower than the rear.......... I like my rigs to sit level. Are there any longer front springs I could swap to gain an extra maybe 1/2" over the stock front springs? Maybe springs from another vehicle that would work possibly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

RIZ

Old Man Emu will have them and they are supposed to be the best riding spring on the market. Don't ruin your WJ by junk yard rigging some springs out of something else. Do it right or don't do it at all.

is Old Man Emu a business or a member on here? I'd rather buy good stuff, just wasn't sure if there was a product out there for this. Are they super expensive? Website? User info?

If you have a 4.0 the springs out of the v8 will give it a bit of a boost. Im not sure how much but you can google v8 spring swap.

Its not putting junk in your car. Obviously some one thought they were decent enough to put them in millions of rigs. I agree that there are some hokey dokey back yard ideas out there floating around but some are pretty good ideas.

If I ever do leafs again I would build a bastard pack before I ever bought one not because IM cheap but because you can end up with a much better pack then store bought if done correctly.
