I did talk to GRIMUS99XJ and he's gonna help me out since I cant find my origional reciept and the rebuild kits arent that much. Im also running rough country 4.5in springs and a 3.5 AAL and have no complaints other then the coils sagging but they are 5 years old now so that is to be expected

My kit's less than a year old. Springs are too short and the bushings make all sorts of noise (probably from getting so beat up thanks to the terrible shackle angle).

I have the same issue that many have. I have the RC 4.5" X-series kit for my XJ and the rear leafs are too short. The kit has been installed for almost 8 months now and the shackle angle is still vertical causing it not flex well and be bone jarringly stiff. The extreme difference in stiffness from front to rear really unsettles the vehicle greatly on the road on curves, especially when bumpy. I would really love to have you guys work with me on this. I should not have to decide to buy something else to correct this flaw.

Little Disappointed.
Wanted to get started on my lift today but after opening everything and lying it out I found I was missing the extended brake lines, sway bar disconnects and the Ubolts.
Called up customer service and they were great and parts re shipping out to me!
Not really a big deal I still can't complain. Everything I got is great sturdy beefy high quality parts!!!
