Hey there.

I just picked up a 93 2wd cherokee country for $1000. It runs just fine, although it needs a lot of TLC. Looks like I'll be on this site quite a bit as i tinker with this thing.

One thing I'd like to know before I start my search. I know the leaf springs get old and sag, but can the coil springs on the front do that? The driver side front is sagging a good bit more than the passenger side.

Looks good, and yes, the coils can get weak and sag. They sometimes break too, with one or more of the coils separating from the rest of the spring.
