1994 Jeep Wrangler 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual

I have a 94 jeep wrangler 4x4 manual. The other day i hit a low wall that bent my front drivers side leaf spring.Now do i replace the leaf springs or can i mount heavy duty shocks in the front removing both front leaf entirely but leave the rears in place. Can i do that or do i need the springs even with the shocks.

You need to replace the leaf springs. The coil over shocks are only to help for loads. You can't remove the leaf springs. Also, I recommend replacing both sides to maintain the same height.
