Dragster
Hi guys so my 2001 XJ has been wearing her 3" RC lift for a few months,i have heavy duty 5 leaf rear springs and im not happy with the dragster look,i was kinda hoping that by now the rear would have settled level,so my question is what can i do to fix my problem,whats the best way to get the front up? can i get a spacer of some sort that will sit on top of the front coils? and if thats a fix whats the best way to measure so that i can get it right?...sorry if this all seems a bit schoolboy not great with the suspension bits.....mucho gras guys...

Do a front end alignment and check the unit bearings.

spacers
you gotta pull the front end apart just like when you put the coils in and slide the spacers over the bump-stop mount easy as pie....pie flavored pie even

You're going to have to move the axle around to get the bolts to line up.

Well I got one lower and coil on driver side and my upper is set to 16.5 and its way off. Top bolt is thru. Should I move to other side and do the same then turn the axle to hook them up? Then should I have my track bar unhooked while I'm doing this? Also do I have to unhook the steering arms for anything? I'm new to doing lifts so any help would be appreciated

My uppers are set at 17"And my lowers Are at 18". I installed mine 1 arm at a time and had all of my steering linkages and trackbar on the jeep. Used 2 jacks on the axle and had the frame on 6 ton jack stands. I also had a buddy slide the bolts in as I manhandled the axles around.

I would adjust the other arm to match
