How's everyone?
Quick question for you guru's.
I have a 96 XJ 4dr, with a RC 3" lift with AAL's, sitting on AT 30's.
I would like to piece together about 2" more lift.
Should I just add 2" spacers up front and some shackles in the rear? I would like a little smoother of a ride, so I was thinking about buying some Rustys 4.5" leaf pack.
If I do the shackles, should I also do shackle relocation brackets? Where's the best place to buy them?
I'm thinking I also need to do LCA drop brackets, correct?
My main goal is to achieve 4.5"-5" of total lift.

A 4.5" pack will be much nicer than your RC AAL, but shocks will play a huge role in comfort level.

Marginally, but they are more of a help than a hindrance. If you've got the money get some long arms, for a little more money than a good set of cads and upper and lower lcas, you can get a long arm setup and never have to worry about changing control arms to change lift height again.
