Kind of nice to have some attitude, I mean altitude eh?

But it sure does look gooood! The ride may improve once things settle. What lift did you go with?

that is how mine was many moons ago once things start settle it will change, at first my leaf springs hardly would move, now four years later they flex pretty good.

Looks really nice! :thumbsup:

Thanks guys, it's a rough country 4.5" suspension lift.

Did you get the short arm kit? I am installing the RC 4.5 short arm kit in mine now.

I don't believe it is the short arm kit. What is the short arm kit?

[NC_Xplorer]

Short arm kit includes new upper & lower adjustable control arms.

Your XJ looks nice with the lift installed.

rough ride: its a lifted jeep

did you put shackles in the back?

Surprised it's a 4.5". Sets up like a 6.5". I have a 4.5" rubicon express system and it rides high at 5" front and 5.5" rear but yours is noticeably taller. It's definitely got some settling to do. Some people throw a couple hundred pounds in the back for a week to speed it up.
