Return to original suspension

[robfg67]

I have a '90 MJ long bed with the Big Ton package and before I bought it last May one of it's previous owners put a 4.5" Rusty's lift on it.

 

Well, she drives like crap and instead of pouring resources into trying to "fix" it, I'm thinking that I should just return to the stock suspension.

 

Would it be as simple as replacing the control arms, shocks, and coils?

 

Would Rock Auto be the place to get good quality stock parts?

 

Thanks

You can get most stock style parts from rock auto. General spring can get you original style springs but you may sit a little higher than stock with those. You could go with possibly the XJ upcountry front springs that are about a 1” lift and they *may* match replacement rear springs. You may have to play around with a small spacer though to get it back to factory rake. Was the steering and track bar modded with the lift? Are there any control arm drop brackets in place?

Yeah, the track bar is from Rusty's too. Not sure about the steering.

 

No drop brackets.
