If you are going to do a SPoa, I would definately consider a YJ spring swap. They are longer, ride batter, and are readily available at any off road shop since many Jeep lift kits come with new lifted springs. I can usually find YJ springs fro about 25-35 dollars each used at local shops

what kind of mods need to be done to run YJ springs?

About all of the Parts Retailers carry a YJ spring conversion kit, some with springs some without. There are probably a dozen recent discussions about them that you could find just by searching YJ in the search box at the top of the page.

I have a RRO JP-eater YJ conversion:



1991 samurai , Mall Crawler, neon green, YJ lift, Wifes vanity plates.
1988.5 tintop too many mods to list. The work samurai.
2005 Avalanche Z71
2003 Matrix XRS
1993 sidekick 4dr 2wd donor thats too nice to destroy yet. 1992 Toyo Pup POS
