no personal experience but they look a LOT shorter than XJ coils.

They are much softer and they will flex much more than any xj coil. A 5" jk coil will give your xj about a 3.5" lift because of its soft spring rate.

BS! I put the coils off of my thers JK and my *stock* XJ coils side by side, and the JK coils were about 2.5" shorter. Add the softness.. and a lifted JK coil MIGHT work to replace a stock xj coil.
