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

that ironrock kit looks nice, heard 3links flex better, but how are they to drive on the road?

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.
