I seen on various forums people using leaf springs form other trucks as there rear XJ leafs to gain about 4 inches of lift. What do I need.... what truck do I yank the leafs from...and anything else that i need?

[Magilla]

i did it and it worked good

[Capt. Crunch]

yea i think i might do this, now just need to find a 91 dakota

[Capt. Crunch]

Is there any other truck spring that you can use. Just to widen my options. Maybe S10??

ight cool thanks

[Capt. Crunch]

i know of one in town

[Magilla]

why do you want more lift? do you have a longer shackle or only 3" springs?

[Capt. Crunch]

well i currently have a 3 in add a leaf, which is saggy like an old bitch. But I dont want to go much bigger than 4 because i dont have the money for drive shaft stuff (SYE and etc.)

i recently replaced mine with the rustys 3.5 for 300 shipped to my house.

you can use all sorts of springs....Blazers, s10s, Dakotas, MJs, Suburbans

[Capt. Crunch]

yea well i really dont want to throw down that much dough quite yet, so if I can just grab these springs for free and spend my money else wear on my rig. Thats what I'm gonna do
