JCWhitney sells a replacement OEM leaf pack for '84 - '96 XJ's and I was wondering if they will fit my '98? Did they change anything about the leaf pack? It's ~1/2 the cost of the dealer.

Easy enough to check, just go outside and take a look at your rear end. I have those exact springs on my ’91 and they have worked very well. Be very careful removing the front eyebolt. Go slowly and WD40 is your friend. God help you if you snap the tack welds on the nuts.
