SandMountainJeep Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Installing an ARB front bumper with 9000 lb. Warn winch on an otherwise stock 91 Comanche and looking for recommendation on front springs and/or shocks to maintain ride height. Thanks!
Knucklehead97 Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 I'm a young gentleman that came and talked to you about your Jeep at the winery a couple years ago... Good to see you on here again! Sadly I've moved out of my mom's house and live about an hour away in Leeds now. But what I would recommend for under 100$ is ZJ front coil Springs. (MOOG part Number CC782) Should get you about 1-1.5" of lift in the front which I would think would level it out perfectly with the weight of the winch/bumper.
Pete M Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 you could also use poly spacers to adjust the height.

Moog also makes the CC784, which is advertised as being a HD variable rate spring for a 4wd XJ/MJ. It will come out to being just a hair taller than the ZJ spring as it's basically the same length but has a few more pounds of rate to it. I've personally used neither, so no comment on which way I'd go. Rockauto has either for about $60 USD.

You've got 1.75" coil spacers waiting for you at the winery. Enjoy
SandMountainJeep Posted July 22, 2019 Author Posted July 22, 2019 Thanks for all the information! I'll decide which way to go soon. And thanks for the spacers!
