Here is my little lift dillema. The front shock replacement provided the PERFECT lift. The 31 x 10.5 Geolanders fit beautifully.

BUT... in the rear the "Add-a-leaf" did not prop up the factory leaf system enough. Hence the extreme difference in lift.

it starting to look great, that sucks about the AAL in the rear. I just got AAL as well and i'm starting to regret it as well. You should take a look at Rocky-Road.com for disconnects, they are a good company and alot cheaper! Check out my xj when you get a chance, let me know what happens with the AAL.

hey thanks, yeah that is a river bed, your jeep is looking good, about the rear lift problem, if your add-a-leafs are good then it is probably that your springs are worn out in the back so the cheaper option is to try to find some lightly used stock leafs and install the add-a-leaf in those or you can just buy 3" lift leaf springs they will be more heavy duty and end up lasting longer. If i was you i would do the second thing but i think either would work.

yeah blackxj and bignsty are right. if you look at the trim line that runs the length of your xj, you'll see the front fender goes higher up the body than the rear one does. so basically you dont sag. BUT you do have less clearance in the back. check out my flex pics to see that. i have much better flex in the front. i just bought some 1.5in lift shackles for the back. maybe you can do that. they're less than a hundred bucks. anyway, nice xj. keep jeepin and check mine out.
