Default grand wagoneer springs on an xj?

i've posted this in the lift and tire question section on here, and on a couple of other sites, and no one is giving me an answer. so i'm gonna try my own thread and see what i get.

so I have a 3 inch grand wagoneer lift from rough country that i bought for my s10 build. but that isn't happening anymore, so i was doing some thinking and i was wonder if the front lift springs (leafs) from the kit could be used as rear springs for my xj. the eye to eye length is 52'' for the waggy springs.
cause if i can do this, then this would save me alot of cash, cause then i would only have to buy new control arms and coils, since i have collected everything else i need.

The wagoneer springs are for a heavier rig witch will make the ride rougher. I would put them on and see if you like it if not then you have to buy new ones neways.

its a trailer queen, so im not to concerned about the ride. and most places we wheel around here is mud or some technical trails. so nothing that constitutes a smooth ride
