hey everyone its been a while since i posted in here. Ive slowly been buying the parts that i needed to fix my saggy suspension. I do however have another qestion. I ordered a set of moog springs
coil springs. coil springs.
After reading more and more I think i ordered the wrong ones. It says that these are for a grand cherokee. I am simply looking to replace with stock springs. Are these going to work or do I need to return them and get another set? As ive said earlier in the thread I am trying to lift this 2" front and rear. so if theres a spring set that is comparable in price that will simply lift 2" so i dont have to use a spacer then thats fine too. Thanks.

the Moog CC782's should give you a little over an inch of lift. I think they are the "up country" coils....not sure about the ones you ordered.....if you want a full 2" I would use the rusty's like Martlor said

I totally forgot to mention that I have already bought the 2"bb from fatbobs garage that comes with the 2" spacers for the front and the shackles for the rear. I also already ordered the Dorman 929 301 leaf springs. I wanted to make sure that with these springs and the spacers that the front wont be riding higher than the rear. If the moogs that I ordered ride higher than stock then Im going to want to return them and get something else. Also Im trying to keep the cost down as much as possible but also without being a total tight a$$

the moogs you ordered should be stock height.

did you order the BB with the shocks or without the shocks?
