The ZJ springs from a V8 will give you ~1", give or take a bit.
They are quite a bit stiffer, as well.

I was wondering about the lift coils, I found a pair of 4" zj coils will they work on my xj? I have an arb bumper and winch so I have some added weight on the front of my xj

people have asked this questions before, and the topic of ZJ v.s. XJ rates has been discussed... do a search, if you put 4" ZJ springs on an XJ, expect about 5" of lift

I just ordered a 3.5 inch RE lift w/ZJ springs from DPG Offroad. Dirk (owner) recommended the ZJ springs for the same reason you state, It will take the added weight of the arb and winch. He said that the springs are stiffer but with the extra weight it would be be the approx. same xj springs without the weight.

Rubicon Express's 4.5" zj coils will give you about 5.5" lift on an xj. I know because I used them with 2" spacers to give me around 7" or so of lift. Now I'm using 8" skyjacker xj coils without spacers up front on 35" mtrs.
