i will say this though - i'm sure iron rock will work with you to fix the error, but you already installed the lift...it was your responsibility to check the parts you received vs what your ordered when you received them...lesson learned.

I was thinking this. I have nothing but good to say about IROR, but mistakes do happen. It's a relatively small company, so give them a call.

Well it being my first lift I wasn't sure how high it was supposed to sit. On top of that when I pay 1800$ for a lift I expect to get the right parts the first time ya know. And I'm in no means bashing iro, there long arms are very beefy and everything is great quality. I just want what I paid for plain and simple

Absolutely understandable. Hope it works out for you.

Can you tell if junkyard springs are going to sag if they're not on the XJ anymore?

I believe the springs are the same. Check REs website. You probably can't find shock, adjustable lowers, and disconnects for less then $200. Also grab an adjustable track bar.
Nah, but it would go a long way and I wouldnt have stuff sitting around I wasnt going to use. I looked at their website but I couldnt find a good explanation anywhere. I appreciate you answering my question though.

Spacer and shackle. And possibly shocks.

And a new track bar if you don't have one. Brake lines if you haven't extended yours. SYE if you don't have one yet.
