Best jeep xj front lift coils

Most people will tell you Rubicon Express is the best, cause there the most expensive, and they don't know any better. The Rough Country springs ride just as good as RE and are much cheaper.

Do you have the factory arms still? It will ride like crap if you have bigger springs with the factory lower arms.. I got Skyjacker Coils on my current jeep and had RC on my last one the Skyjackers are a little stiffer but takes off road bumps better.. Hope this helps goodluck!

ok bilsteins are overpriced for the mostly same quality of jackers. and plus bills cost 3 times more then jackers. sold auto parts for 5 years. nitro jackers work very well. I have the drop brackets with adjustable iron man fabication shot arms. the cheapest thing on my truck was the coils. they where pretty much free. so please dont tell me things i have a junk because there not. this was a easy question about coils not the other gear on my rig. it build right. just looking for the best coils
