Default Can I put 3.5 coil springs on my stock jk?

I have a 2011 JKU with a leveling lift currently. I was wondering if I could swap out for 3.5 coil springs without having to change anything else besides shocks. This might be a dumb question but I’ve never owned a wrangler before and this is my first post. Thanks!

You can, anything is possible. It's not advised though. There's a reason 3.5" lift kits come with a TON of other parts. I've seen it done, but it's not the right way to go about it.

Depends. Do you want to enjoy driving it again? Ever?

There are a few threads stuck right to the top of this Modified Tech section. Might not be a bad idea to open them when you have a few minutes.
