I tried 2 fit these massive Springs under my Jeep I feel like I was missing something luckily I had these other coils that I had laying around and use them. It was perfect fit you got about three inch lift out of them I use shackles in the back which I'm going to replace with leaf springs that I have tonight

Assuming the wheel flares are in the stock location (haven't been moved up fender for more tire clearance), you can measure center of hub to wheel flare. The numbers for stock height are floating around the forum somewhere, quick search should find them. Little math and you'll know where you are at.

Most front springs are a tad bit taller,So they can sag and be back where they should be,And also a lot of people run a winch bumper with a winch that weight can make the front end sag.

Yeah i installed the leaf springs that came with the lift. I thought it was to tall and that the drive line was going to clunk but did not. I think it must have been the shackels. Right?
