in a 4door tracker, what tj springs would you install, front or rears?  would 4 to 6 cyl make a difference?

Where are you putting them, front or rear of your Tracker? Neither will work on the front of a Tracker, but I've heard of some guys using the rear jeep coils in the rear of a Trackick. They are slightly bigger in diameter and a few inches longer, which is what provides the lift. You'll most likely have to modify your coil mounts to fit the jeep coils larger diameter.

 TJ fronts are going to give about the same amount of lift.
