TJ springs on a JK
I know it seems I've been asking alot of questions on here: can you do this or how do you do that, so heres another one.
I've had lots of jeeps and race cars over the years and like any good tinkerer, I tend to be something of a pack rat. As such my garage resembles a very un-organized auto parts junk yard. Well last night I found a box that had my 3.5" RE spring from my 03 tj. I only ran this lift for about 6 months before upgrading to a 5.5" RE long arm.
So I'm looking at the springs and started thinking of my JK and wondering how different the two suspensions are. I realize there are probably significant changes in the brackets, the arms and etc... but what about the springs them selves.
Will my tj springs work on my jk? If not does anyone make an adapter kit.
