I hear (read) that XJ main+S10 pack gives 3.5". I don't have experience doing it, though.

You can try removing the s10 main and bolting the 4 leafs up under your xj main. That should be plenty for 3-4in of lift. If not, cut the s10 main leafs eyelets off and add that to the pack under the xj main. Dont forget friction pads so the leafs dont rub.
