Hey Everybody,

I bought my XJ recently from a guy who told me he had installed AAL's because he towed a heavy(ish) camper. I'm looking into lift kits and I'm not sure how to tell if there are AAL's installed or not, if there are, I figured I can just get some shackles to get a little bit more lift out of the rear to match up w/ the front. If anybody can tell me how to tell I appreciate it, thanks!

How many leafs are in your leaf pack?

Wrecked

Center of the wheel hub to the bottom of the flare from the factory is 17 inches. If it sits any higher than this, you probably have AALs.

XJ Stryker

Well if he said they are then they prolly are! I mean the price for new packs is close to 200 dollar difference than AAL's

You can generally tell if they are AAL's cause the second leaf will look newer.

If you want to get lift the right way and not worry about it no for several years just get new packs! If you call RoughCountry and talk to Jason he will give you a pretty decent quote on some new ones.

One problem you may want to check into is new shocks he may not have bought the longer ones and if you plan to ever wheel you will need longer shocks or they won't stretch enough limiting you flex or worse BREAK!

There are 4 leafs. Also, in response to what Wrecked said - I measured from the center of the hub to the fender flair, 19" in the rear and 18" in the front, and the front is 100% stock.
