On the JK, we learned that there were several different coil springs used depending upon the equipment your Jeep was built with. Each spring had a unique part number. For example, a loaded Sport with hard top and all the options would get a coil spring to accommodate the extra weight, so a guy with a base model and soft top could swap those coils onto his Jeep and net a small lift. Sometimes the lift would amount to a full inch or more.

What this did is it really opened up the market for take-off coils. Instead of only the Rubicon coils being sought after, there were guys who would even search for take-offs from Sports and Saharas too.

Has anybody taken notice yet of the part numbers on your coils to see if they're still using many different ones? Here's mine from the driver side front. I need to check the rears too. I have a Sport S with Technology package, Hard top, and auto. trans. My guess is that my coils are probably one of the taller ones used. Let's see what you guys have!

I searched before making this thread and couldn't find a post about it. Do you have a link?
