If you are looking for some drop-in springs that will fit the YJ mounts exactly I think you should use some off a YJ:flipoff2:

ya know what belongs in this thread, that big long list we used to have here of various vehicles spring lenghts and widths. someone should search and post it back up. or better yet, make it a STICKY!

a sticky of useful tech information. that would be sweet.

Just get the Waggy springs, you will be better off. And if you dont like the offset then swap out the main leaf for your YJ's, you need to pull the center pin anyways to flip it over.
