David,
Question's a bit confusing...
I use coilovers front and rear.
The Jag rear uses 10" springs, four shocks (two per side) with 350 lbs/in spring rate. The extended length of the shocks is 15". I use a 3.8S width rear. If you use an XKE width (narrower) or a sedan (XJ, wider) width, all bets are off!
The front of my car uses a Mustang II-type suspension. If you have a Jag front suspension you'll need torsion bars. If so, there are places to get them - let me know.
If you have the Mustang II suspension, mine uses a 13.5" extended length shock with 450 lbs/in spring rate. Again differences abound!
Caution: These specs are for my car. There are variations among kits, years, etc etc for both shock length, spring rate needed and placement of the shock mounts. Please make sure you know what you need before you run out and buy stuff!
Regards,
Tom
