leaf springs what fits what

will the leaf springs from a cj7 fit a cj5 ? thank you for any answers

 

pretty general question! what year of CJ5?

 

Not a bolt in swap, they're wider for starters. If you're talking early '5 like yours that is.

 

This.
Might also try the search function as this has been covered a bunch in different applications. I'd also look at the fabricator's forum as it's been covered there too.

Not enough info to answer your question....

 

sorry about that mine is a 66 cj5. the ones i looked at on cl didnt specify a year i was just looking for a bolt up situation. my cj has sag a$$ syndrome and in the front too from having a plow

 

Definitely not a "bolt on". You'd need springs from '55 to '75. Lots of differences in spring rates and such. if you can find decent springs from a '73-75 with a V-8 that would help with the plow. Keep in mind that stock springs from even a '75 are 36 years old......

Hate to say it but I'd recommend new ones or take offs from a known source.

 

sweet thanks for the info nick it helps alot

 

Like the motto at work on our repair orders "we do our best"

 

You might check out lift kits! I just bought a Rough Country 2.5 inch lift complete with four springs/ shocks/ and u-bolts for 368.00 delivered to my door..
Or is there a shop near you that can re-arch and build up your springs?
FYI, if you do order a lift! CJ5's pre 68 lift and 69-75 lift are listed different. However the difference is u-bolt sizes only and I still had to have some made for my D25 front end.
