I'm planning on going coils in the front via subframing a tj front section onto my '89. I want to use xj leaves in the rear spring under in the original direction, no stretch. I have OME 036 springs now with just about 3" of lift and 33-10.50 ko2s. Any idea what size xj lift springs I should use to keep it the same height?
Question on your build, awesome by the way. I have a 92 YJ. I want to keep it spring under. I have the kit but was wondering if you recommend any specific length on the leaf spring.
@@breakingbolts7621 I was wondering about springs as well. I am spring over with stock yj springs. Assuming I just get the stock xj springs and run them over axel to match ride height?
No it won’t match. You will come down a bit. Stock XJ ended up lowering rear too much. So I moved the frame side mounts back and used Jeep Wagoneer front springs from a 74. This also gave me another 3” of stretch. I’m about 9” rear stretch in the rear now
Thanks Danny McBride
Thanks for making this video. I am looking at purchasing this kit and this was very helpful
Awesome vid man. Recently got a stock 4.0 yj on 33s and thinking about 8.8s and this kit for some more crawly stuff
Ford 8.8 is darn near a direct drop in for YJ. A great first upgrade for your Jeep.
Would like to see more pictures of your install about to be doing thisnin about a montg and trying to sort out my rear shocks.

did you use the shackles provided? what length are they?
Where you able to use your driveshaft or did you have to get a longer one?
I’m about to swap a set of Dana 60’s out of a 2001 super duty into my YJ, any overall tips or tricks that can help?
Isn't that rear leaf going to hit the crossmember with 1" of squat?
I’m running spring over stock yj leaf’s with tons, do I need stock xj rear leafs for my yj or do I need xj lift springs
What is the purpose of doing this?
Would this have any issues running 3.5 XJ leafs ?
Dou you need to use 4 inch lift xj springs if your yj has a 4 inch lift on it already?
Are you spring under or spring over right now?

if i want to do a mild build and still daily drive my yj, is this a good option?
