I would seriously consider 2" waggy springs first. That will get you 4-5" and can extend the wheel base 2".

Don't want to deal with a SOA swap at this time. With the new tech. that BDS has been putting into their springs I can go with a set of 5" SUA in the front and match the SOA in the rear and not have to deal with axle wrap and all the other issue of a street driven SOA vehicle. A SOA swap done right is far more $$$$$ then the $250+- that the 5" springs SUA are going to be.

The only reason I'm thinking of going this route is I have to add a main leaf to the rear XJ packs ( I'm killing them ) . I'm running 4" SUA in the front now and sit level . If I add a leaf I need to go up in the front or I will look like a 70's AMC product sitt'n in the trailer park. I refuse to add longer shackles ( cause that is just wrong !! ) and looks stupid !
The BDS springs should fit the bill just right , they are 100% warrantied for life to the original buyer and they flex great.

Thanks all, I just found out that Sunfire Offroad is a dealer for BDS , since Scott came out and supported the Benefit I think I'll throw some business his way.
