and ya i want more fender clearance and dont have the lift needed for 31s I compared my xj to a guys here in town that had a 3in lift and 31s and noticed mine site about an inch lower. Least I figured out why I scrub so bad.... I ordered a nice set of pro comp a/ts till I can afford a bigger lift for 33s

You can be at 4.5 and not cut, it's called bump stopping. Limit the up travel to stop the collision.
I'm sure you could bump what you have and not scrub anymore.
But that's my opinion.
Ill stay at 3" and be running 35" tires... Soon...

. Besides I dont see having this jeep on any serious off roading conditions. I want to get a jeep like yours and matts and make a trail rig out of it. Idk what Im actually gonna end up doing at the moment.
