Jeep leaf springs

[Sharpe]

I need new springs for project cheap jeep because all the ones on it now look like the one pictured below. Anyone have a set of either stock or mild lift springs that will fit a 74 CJ5? Cheap is good. I have chevy parts coming out the ass to trade so if you need any we can make a deal.

those springs kinda look like the pollocks front springs

i got my old springs from my xj(35 rear over axle) dont know if they will work-then you would have to setup a springover???? i have em if you wantem if not more scrap!!!

If they'll work I'll take em since I am planning on doing a SOA anyway.

send me some measurements some time and i will get some this weekend

On the xj rear leafs the spring pin is not centered. and I am not sure but I think they are wider. If they are the same width you could build some bastard springs using your stock mainleaf. Then you could redrill the pin hole wherever you need it.

ditto hadnt thought of that

robert i have some springs for a cj-5 at my house in mission, they i think 2 inch lift springs, possibley stock, the packs have 7 springs, which i think is more that stock, depends how big a hurry you are in to get them though, cause i dont think i will be going home till the next holiday or spring break which ever comes first. shoot me a pm if interested.

you'll have to change spring hangers if you go to a 2.5" wide spring.

$225 and I'll rip all the junk off my cj

2 unused YJ spring hangers, 2 never been welded on 76 style spring hangers, 4 rear 76-86 cj springs, 4 2.5" wide shackle hangers, 2 spring perches, and ****ty yj shackles

JP did the yj hangers on a pre 76 -5
