For all the work/frame butchery that would go into a coil conversion on a YJ, you'd be WAY ahead to trade up to a TJ. One more point- A panhard bar (or track bar) does nothing to eliminate axle wrap. It locates the axle side-to-side under the Jeep. A lot of guys new to Jeeping are reading this- let's be sure our answers are accurate.

But the control arms do...am I correct? I own a CJ, not a TJ.
