You want these.

75 bucks and an alignment later you're ready to go.

Plus, you can always add on to that stuff later to make it bigger when you're out from under Mommy and Daddy's wings.

Anyone know if a TJ front coil is the same as an XJ one? I got a free pair of used 2 1/2" TJs and would like an idea of where it will sit before getting it all together. I know Grand coils give lift but do TJs??

Tj coils give one inch less lift on an xj than on a tj so they would be 1.5 inches of lift.

Yea they'll fit fine - I have TJ lift coils on mine.

They should net ~1" less on an XJ than on a TJ however. (~1 1/2" in your case)

You pup them in with no load on the springs and they keep the springs from compressing, they are retarded.
