there is a first for everything...

do they have more arch unweighted than the XJ springs?

I thought CJ leaves were 2" wide? Wrangler leaves are 2.5" wide.

cj rears are 2.5" wide. cj fronts are 2" wide. Yj's are 2.5" all the way around

i used some stock yj's for about 1.5-2", i bet it will be close to that

I put a set of 4" lift CJ springs on my brothers sagging 89. I used the XJ main leaf and removed the CJ main and bolted the remaining CJ springs to the XJ main leaf. It gave him 4" of lift. He pulls a trailer so I put in an AAL and it was real stiff but good for him. HTH Doug

I forgot to add I used the Rear CJ springs

hmmmm....so these may not give any lift over stock then...
