look at ironman4x4fab but i dont think it comes with the crossmember/brace which you'll need. Ironrockoffroad.com has one also. btw i'm not lifted that high just giving you kits that i have seen

why the heck do you need to go so big though. out here lower is better with all the off camber I wouldn't want to be in a XJ with 6+ inches of lift.
