I have been thinking about putting leafs on the front end of my xj for awhile now, and iv finally decided to do it. SO my question is I what leafs are out there For me to use to get around 5 to 6 inches of lift. Everything I read about people doing this is about all them getting like 8 to 10 inches and I don't want that so please help me!

And I don't want this to be another debate about which is better leafs or linked. That's been done a many of times thanks

YJ leaves are usually pretty flexy and easy to find

Ya that's what iv heard but iv also heard they aren't the strongest and will sag rather soon

But from what I hear I can use full size waggy yj and cj leafs but Idk what kinda lift I'd get with what

use rear yj spring or plow springs

dboots

Do you know the aprox lift rear yj springs would get me?

ranger guys use wrangler rear leafs with an AAL for 250 PPI ratings...one guy on B2 is getting about 8" of lift using an AAL and 4" wrangler leafs. you could probably do a stock set of leafs and an AAL for the height you want.

A stock set from? Xj? Yj? Cj?
