New leafs/spacers
I need to replace the sagging, flat leafs on my xj. I have a 4.5 inch lift which is probably more a 4 now. I have 1.5 inch shackles in the rear currently but I'm trying to get rid of those. My buddy said I would be fine with 3.5 leafs and stock shackles, he said it would be about 4 or 4.5. Or do you guys think I should get 4.5 inch leafs with no shackles? Also I am going to get 1.75 inch coil spacers up front so it levels it out. I dont want the rear to be higher. Which is why i was asking about leaf springs.
Let me know what you guys think is best.
Thanks

id do 3.5 inch springs with your shackle you have now. it will flex better and ride better than the stock shackle imo.

I'm going to do 3.5 inch leafs with 1.5 shackles. And 1.75 inch spacers in the front. Will that be level or too high in the back.
