Look up budget and Jy build threads. for the front i suppose you could use Bronco springs. but they are gonna be stiff.
for the back you can buy "lowering shackles" fron any parts store. I heard they give two inches of lift in the back for XJs. and for the extra inche you could build some bastard pack off of a S10s stock leafs.
Unless your leafs are sagging then XJ stock leafs provide no lift other then returning it to stock height . which i suppose is higher then what you had before lol

No im either having switch issues or power issues. The window would only go up or down if id slowly open or close the door while holding the switch in position. It has since stoped doing it all together since i played with the switch and wireing. Now i need to replace the wing window due to a broken mount and the window needs to be down to perform the task.

Looking at buying some rubicon rims for my Cherokee there 4.5x5 17" with a five inch back space would that work or is the back spacing to much for the Xj ?
Two inch lift with 31s is what I plan on running

Holy hell. I'm going to ask a question in this thread... I'm breaking one of my cardinal rules by asking a question before putting my hands on it and trying to look at it first.
Here goes:
Assume a 92 4.0 is idling perfectly.
You put your foot on the throttle pedal.
You BARELY push it and the engine tries to die. (As in starting from a stop sign)
Push past that spot and it picks up and does fine.
Same spot every time.
TPS?
Don't I remember something about being able to temporarily unplug the TPS to eliminate it as an issue? I'll test is when I get home, this is just my hunch.
