Thanks for the info, I was having problems with the translation. Guess that is why its not discussed very often cost vs. return on investment, at least in my case.

It's no one's business why, if the OP wants to convert to rear coils it's his call.
Clayton makes a kit or you could fab your own if you've got the time and tools.
It's not difficult to do.

Just because I want rear could on a trail rig doesn't mean yall should be hostile. I was simply asking for advice from those who have hopefully converted.

staangs fab makes a rear coil conversion much like claytons and less money with a full lifetime warranty.
i would say it's no questions asked warranty, but i'm sure he would love to know how you could destroy them. lol.
it's pretty easy for the most part, just gotta add the coil buckets to your rear frame and use some stock front coils for about 6-8 inches of lift.

It's a lot less work and will perform better if you use coilovers instead of coils and shocks in the rear. Really not much to do. Crossmember, links to the axle, coilsovers and a swaybar setup if you plan on using it on the road.

In a recent issue of JP magazine they did a rear coil swap on an XJ. It looked pretty trick.
