anybody done this? im considering it because ive got a set of stock rear (2.5" wide) springs from my cj7 AAAAAANNNDdddd im short on cash lol. if youve done this how much lift didt it give? post up some pics too.
 
there is a first for everything...

do they have more arch unweighted than the XJ springs?
if they do, then they will add lift - dont know how much till vehicle sits on them...

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 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
