My new XJ has spacers on the front coils and sits level. How do I determine if the control arms are stock or longer after market arms and if the leaf spring shackles are stock? I need to know so I can order stock control arms and shackles when I remove the spacers and replace the leaf springs and coils. (Returning her to stock height.) Thanks!
