This maybe a stupid question, but here goes......

Can I put a long arm set-up on the XJ with only a 4.5" lift?

I ran mine at around 4.5". It rode great and still does at around 7".

Just cut the LCA mounts all the way off so they don't get in the way.

I like the design of Rustys myself(what mine are base on) and the RE kit is crazy beefy.
