99ncxj Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I've got a buddy buying my XJ axles to put under his MJ, I havn't been able to go over there and get a measurement on the spring center pin width and he hasn't either. My question is, will an XJ rear axle bolt up as a spring over without having to move the spring perches on the axle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driverdave Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 mj springs are longer and different arch I asked this a while back my xj has 4.5" lift I wanted on my mj. look around for the forum "bastard packs" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99ncxj Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 ok, i think i may have been missunderstood. I'm talking about the width of the leaf spring mounts. do they compare to the width of a cherokee? will an XJ axle bolt up as a spring over on an MJ?

Pete M Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Nope. They are different. XJ leafs are mounted outside their uniframe, MJs are directly below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that you were miss quoted just the xj leaf will NOT work on an mj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that you were miss quoted just the xj leaf will NOT work on an mj Dave, he is not asking about XJ leaves. He is asking if he can bolt an XJ axle into an MJ without moving the spring perches.
