i personally dont know how much lift the springs will get you but i would guess only a couple of inches, but the u-bolts you can usually get at any parts store, you can get them with the blocks if you buy them new they dont usually cost that much.

abigod

some one told that i can get the springs from a 94 ford f150 (the box looking one) and that i cant get a straight 4 inch lift just from that is this tru ?

3.5 - 4 inch with the F150 springs, but the ride will be rough and they will not flex as well. Uncompressed they are the same length as the stock XJ spring, only thicker with a heavier spring rating.

You should look into one of the budget boosts that available for your XJ.There are so many out there.

abigod

well i think im just gana gona go with the the grand cheroke springs and go with a 2inch block in the back

mike albo

Make sure its the V8 springs.

abigod

yup it is man just having issues getting the springs out

abigod

any tips on gettin these(springs) out also i broke the upper rear driver side shock mount. do new shocks come with the mount ?

mobilecherokee4

what do you mean mount?

abigod

where u bolt on the shock to the body the top part

No mount per sey, just the shock.If it is the bolts that mount the shock- that you broke- search broken shock mount. Common problem with xjs. There are a few ways to repair the problem, and when you install the new shocks use plenty of anti-seize.
