Default Rusty's 2" Lift kit

Does anyone have one of these installed on a stock or near stock XJ?

I want to do a 2" lift, and it seems like Rusty's is the only one that has add a leafs, as well as new shocks and springs up front. I already have 30" tires I just want a small lift that doesn't require modifying the brake lines and stuff.

Any input or suggestions would be much appreciated! Thanks

Default 2" lift

to be completely honest (depending on year of xj and location) going bigger then 2" is recommended. i installed 2" spacer and shackles thinking that would be the quickest route, ofcourse that wasn't the case with all the bolts breaking and what not. By the time i was finished i wish i had gone bigger because of about the same amount of work would have went into putting a 3" or more on.
but thats me, i recommend 3" coils and AAL or a s-10 leaf (all my shackles did when installed was make my leafs sit flat) little to no moding needed
