leaf spring to coil springs swap?

[shonster]

how much would someone from here who KNOWS what theyre doing charge me to do a swap like that in my 91 YJ? something reasonable...and at the same time swapping over my rust free body tub onto my current chassis?

[BrokenAxle]

that depends on if you are doing a kit or fully custom

[shonster]

just the very basic of conversions...i just want a smoother ride is all.

I rode in a YJ with this and it was quite enjoyable. I personally don't plan to run that way, but it may be an inexpensive way to get what you seek.

This would involve basically stripping it down to the frame (could leave motor, tranny & T-case in ), re-engineer a suspension system, some fabrication (expensive), and lots of labour. Keep in mind that almost every bolt you remove will be rusted and should be replaced.

My guestimate would tally up in the $2-$3K mark, + Parts.

You would end up with a ride quality similar to a TJ, but most people don't buy TJ's because of the ride quality

I put the diffs and front suspension from a 79 Bronco on mine.
Lots of frame cleaning, lots of welding, and lots of measuring.
Lots of work - won't do that again - until the next time

Really - it all lined up - unbelievable 0 even the jeep bump stops.
