Default Those stock springs

Does anyone have any ideas on what to do with stock springs? I'm getting quite a few crowding up my garage, and all i can think of is sell them for scrap.

I'd list em for free on CL just to get rid of them.....or sell em for scrap. On the off chance you ever wanted/needed to return to stock, should be easy to source some factory springs. It's hard to part with things like this that just don't have resale value.....but it is what it is. This is one of those things that is addition by subtraction!

Owners of 2 door JKs can get 3/4-1 inch or so of lift from a JKUR spring swap, so don't just toss them on the scrap heap.

Any jku, not just jkur. The rubis don't have any different springs compared to the sport.

Default List them on Craigslist

I was able to sell my old set on Craigslist fairly easily for $50. Put some money back into my pocket. They can be an improved spring rate depending on what any JK owner has currently. I swapped my Sahara springs for a set of JKUR springs and got an 1.5 inch lift out of it.
