Ive herd the bronco xl's springs give you 4 or 4.5 inches of lift, but the ones that have done it say they are too stiff an don't flex well, they're made for a heavier rig so our 3k ish jeeps don't perform well with em

1 ton truck springs do not belong on a 1/4 ton suv.
yes they will ride horrible, and flex horrible, and thats if they even fit. even if the bottom is of the right diameter i don't believe the top coils in and it would fit looseley around the xj coil tower and likely rub the unibody structure.

Why not just weld some pipe in place of the springs? You'll get the same quality ride as you would with F350 coils.

Yeah coils are cheap honestly, just save and buy a lift don't have to worry about the hassle, worst thing I've ever done was go cheap and put 50 dollar blocks on my jeep it rode like a skateboard now I got a RE 3.5in super ride feels like pillows compared to blocks
