Default What is the stock backpacking on a 00 xj sport?

I'm looking to get a 3" lift kit for my 00 xj sport, but I'm not sure what the stock backspacing is, and the kit recommends 3.75" how could I go about getting that kind of backspacing with stock rims?

5.25"

A change in backspacing is usually prompted by going to a wider tire, rather than installing a lift.

The only way to get that backspacing with stock rims is to install 1.5" wheel spacers.
