Moog CC782 Coil Spring Set

This is review is meant as a informative guide and counter-poise to anyone considering this particular part. The CC782 coils are meant as a heavy duty replacement for Cherokees with the 4.0L engine ...primarily Cherokee XJ's (they will work in ZJ's with the 4.0L) ...so you should ignore - absolutely and completely ignore - ANY review where there's no mention of the engine displacement of the vehicle they were installed in. The CC782's are actually THE replacement for Cherokee XJ's with the Upcountry option (or even if you want to upgrade your suspension **to** the Upcountry option; you will also need the Crown Automotive 4886186AA Leaf Spring Assembly). As a commenter to the "other" negative review mentioned, Moog is a quality aftermarket (and OEM as far as that goes) supplier of replacement parts, with a well deserved reputation in the Jeep community for producing great products. (Just read the Cherokee forums.) I replaced the worn out coils (and leafs and shocks) in my 1996 Cherokee XJ Sport a few weeks ago; with 150K on the odometer, the original suspension was almost completely worn out (although the front & rear bushings on the rear leafs were still good, I did replace those too, with poly bushings, entirely for ease-of-installation reasons). Based on extensive research I did pre- the purchase, I finally spec'd the Moogs as the coils most likely to duplicate the factory Upcountry option (which I will detail later in this review). I was not disappointed. Using the factory method of measuring lift (which is done under load: i.e., with the full weight of the vehicle on the tires, and measuring from top-of-axle-to-frame), the Moogs gave exactly one inch of lift over stock. Factory height should be 6.75 inches +/- 0.5 inch, and my measured height was 7.75 inches; this is also the exact Upcountry option factory height. Do note that my measurement includes a Warn Trans4mer 60766 Grille Guard and Warn 39653 Brush Guards, which adds about 70 plus pounds to the front moment arm ...which is a round-about way of intimating that if you do NOT have a rather heavy brush guard hanging off the front end, your height will likely be 1/4 to 1/2 inch higher than mine. Ride quality is entirely subjective: a kind of "one man's ceiling is another man's floor" sort of thing. That said: the ride is quite firm, turns are absolutely flat & controlled, and there's no way that anyone could interpret the above combination of coils & leafs as "wallowing" lol. Coupled to heavy duty shocks (I used a set of Tenneco monotube shocks that are OE spec'd for Jeep JK Rubicons, modified suitably to fit my XJ), I have no complaints. --------- UPCOUNTRY OPTION --------- If you would like to duplicate the factory Upcountry option in its more important parts (i.e., the suspension) in your Cherokee XJ 1991-1996 (and probably earlier and later years), you can purchase everything here at Amazon. You will need the following: Moog CC782 coil springs (sold by the pair) - . Moog CC782 Variable Rate Coil Spring Crown 4886186AA leaf springs (sold each, so order two) - . Crown Automotive 4886186AA Leaf Spring Assembly; For Use w/LT/ZGW/ZVW; Heavy Duty; 4 Leaf; Zone 2100J 0.75 inch spacers (the Crowns have a little too much lift: these restore the correct front-to-rear ratio) - . Zone Offroad Coil Spring Spacers 3/4" (pair) Monroe Sensa Trac 37083 front shocks (adequate and a good value, order two) - . Monroe 37083 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber Monroe Sensa Trac 37027 rear shocks (as above, order two) - . Monroe 37027 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber Energy Suspension 22109B rear polyurethane bushings (easier to install, GREASE POLY's THOROUGHLY!!!) - . Rear Leaf Spring Bushing Set Black 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ # 22109G ...and there you have it. YMMV, but on my 1996 Cherokee XJ Sport, the replacement parts above (except shocks: but I would have used those; I just got a great deal on the monotubes) gave me the equivalent of a 1.75 inch lift, and a brand new HD suspension at a bargain price. If you're reasonably handy with tools, you will save a bundle of money, and be inordinately pleased with the final result. --------- ACCESSORIES --------- I also mentioned the Warn grille guard. It looks great. It's additional protection. It's expensive (I found mine used). It's one of the few effective grille guards out there (frame mounted, decent steel). It has available options including a winch mount (in my plans lol), and/or a front receiver. Very nice. Warn Trans4mer 60766 grille guard - . WARN 60766 Trans4mer Grille Guard - Black Warn Trans4mer 39563 brush guards - . WARN 39563 Trans4mer Brush Guard - Black

Munutes after i installed these springs, one of them collapsed and is sagging about 2 inches lower then the other side.

Like a lot of people I found these while searching for an OEM upcountry lift for my 2001 60th XJ. I installed these and a pair of Doorman leaf springs on my jeep along with some Billstein shocks. I did NOT use the suspension pucks as suggested by the OP and found that my slight lift was nice and level. For reference my tire size is 225/70 r16.

These coils seem to be good quality. They lifted the front a bit compared to the original coils. They are a little stiffer than original but I have no doubt that they will hold up for a long time. I would not hesitate to buy these.

Thanks to brdavis9 "davisbr" for his review. I used most of his recommendations and have a great result. I had zero fit or quality issues with any of the components. Original springs were shot. Before and after measurements from center hub to fender bottom measurements: * Front = 17" now 19.75" * Rear = 16.5" now 19.75 I also replace tires and did an H4 headlight and wiring upgrade. Excellent results.
