Hey man not to rain on your parade but it would be best if you leave the 2" spacer/shackles out of it. I only say this because I had the exact same set up on my first xj. The 4.5" rustys kit doesn't come with upper control arms and the track bar is made for up to a 5" lift if I remember correctly. Your suspension geometry is going to be messed up in the front and give you all kinds of problems and headaches. Axle will be way too far back in the wheel well, horrible control arm steepness (crappy ride quality), death wobble, multiple bent and even broken tie rod ends on the upper track bar... Etc. The brake lines only get relocated so they will definitely be too short. Either find a way to upgrade to the 6.5" kit that is much more "complete" or leave it at 4.5" and purchase the other needed parts for 6.5" as time/$ permit.
