If I may quote Calculon: "I'm not familiar with the kind of thing I am seeing."

If you get good leaves then you will have to remove the shackles or your XJ will do front flips.

ups.com calculates $30 (45lb)each from Warrenton to Nashville, w/o residential and oversize fees.
I paid $55 to have a single spring and shock shipped from AL to VA. And it cost me $65 to have a 70lb package sent from VA to KS.
I'd like $50 for the springs also.

It should sit about 2.5" above stock. Probably it would sit more level. I'd run some 4.75" long (3/4" lift) Shackles to give more flex than stock length shackle.
What size tire is on it in the pic? 31"?
The shackles you're running look unstable!

They were originally a 3" spring, but I ran them for about 8 years so they are a little sagged. Great spring rate and ride however.
Now I'm running these:Rusty's 4.5" Springs
