coil springs on a zj

can you use the front coil springs on a zj and put them on the rear and buy taller front springs for lift?

Yes, you can, if you mozy on over to ironrockoffroad.com they have a 3.5" kit that does just that
IRON ROCK OFF ROAD: ZJ 3.5" Lift Kit
I run it and the one i linked you is all you need but i would go ahead and add in a rear adjustable trackbar, its is very nice to have so you can center your rear axle under you. There is some debate as to whether the I6 springs will provide he full 3.5" as the v8 springs are recommended but you can always try it out and see before you you get v8 springs from the junkyard or something.

Other than that i would recommend the JKS quick discos but its not necessary and the bilsteins are a dream but are are pretty damn pricy compared to the others available.

Most common way of cheap lifting, aside from BBs.
Read the FAQ, F>R swap section.
