Im going to be buying either some fox 2.0 emulsions or resevoir shocks soon. The only problem i have is that my rubicon express springs are wayyy to stiff. I would like to run an AEV progressive rate or new currie progressive rate springs but they're made for a 4 inch lift on a tj which would only net me about 3 inches on my xj. I dont really like the idea of running spacers either. Plus i want a spring that is long as hell when theres no weight on it for alot of downtravel without my spring unsetting. Im sitting between 5-5.5 up front right now and i would like to stay at that same height for belly clearance on the hammers trails. So my question is what spring is going to provide alot of travel but not be nearly as stiff as the RE springs and b very smooth with my new fox shocks?

those TJ leafs + a shackle would give you the best down travel

Tj's do not have leaf springs nor does the front end of my xj

This is my opinion but its not the right setup for everyone (spendy), get a set of fox coilovers so you can mess with the springs (different rates)and compression and rebound valving. They use eibach coils (I believe..its been a while)so springs are plentiful. There's a rate calculators everywher and google coilovers on a cherokee and see what other people run. If your stuck with wanting to run emulsions or remotes and coils, I really like the way my fabtech 8" TJ coils ride and flex and they are roughly 7 inch lift for my cherokee, at least clears my 35s.

Ha im 18 years old. Coilovers arent really an option for me rite now. And i wanna stay around 5 inches of lift. No taller

God I must have been drunk meant 3" xj leafs and a set of shackles would be the best bang for your buck otherwise there is a coil conversion for the rear of an xj

Haha are u sure ur sober yet? Im talking about the front of my xj. Front coils

cdawall

nope possibly hung over i am good now though. for the front i am running 4.5" TJ leafs on mine they gained about 3" like you said and i will be throwing in 2" spacers on top of that this weekend. it has more drop out in the coils than my LCA's allow.





spring is still fully seated in the bucket. wont be much difference if any with the coil spacer. these are fat bob's coils that were well broken in (got them used) and they are soft as hell.

Hmm kinda strange - from what I remember all the spelling and punctuation was correct, but he was speaking gibberish!!!

I'm calling BS on the beer buzz, you just need to look under your jeep. J/K!!

cdawall

spelling and punctuation was correct cause it drives me crazy when its not i only had a couple cases of long necks between me and the wife so it wasn't to much.
