Default Suburban leaf springs?
I found a pretty good deal on some beefy lifted leaf springs off an older suburban.

Do you think they would be compatible on a 96 xj?

If you want it to ride like a dump truck, go for it.

I'm not positive but I think they use 3" leaf spring (width) XJ is 2.5" so you'd have some modifying to do, and like said already it'd ride worse than a dump truck.
