Important Notes

Leaf springs not designed for excess additional cargo weight; lower ride height may result. Check Rear Axle Diameter: The XJ was manufactured with different rear axles. You'll need to identify yours to complete an order. To tell the difference, measure the inner diameter (I.D.) of your rear U-bolts. The Chrysler 8.25 rear axle uses a 3-inch I.D. U-bolt and the Dana 35 rear axle requires a 2-3/4-inch I.D. U-bolt.
