98 Green Cherokee XJ

Yeah the IRO steering rod is a solid piece of equipment. Paired with the Moog TRE's I think it will be quite a decent upgrade from stock. I got it on Black Friday for just over $50, and then $24 x2 for the Moog's. All in all just under $100.
You need to use the 99 Durango Box without the snow plow feature. It has exact same bolt pattern as the XJ box, but it is a bit beefier.
Sounds good, keep it up!

Okay so just Tie Rod you paid $50 I see its $79 normal price. I'll look into that wouldn't hurt to upgrade some things once I get a few other items sorted out. Added to the list!

Here is a comparison picture of how the Jeep is currently sitting vs how it will sit with the new springs. As of right now, it has Rubicon Express 3.5” coils up front, with a Rough Country 3” full leaf pack (11 months old).
I stuck the Hi-Lift jack into the hitch and jacked it up about 2 clicks. This is more or less where the Rubicon Express 3.5” full leaf pack will sit once it arrives Friday.
Jacked up 2 clicks

Got around to installing the new rear 3.5” RE leaf packs. At first it was much higher than I anticipated, but after the last 2 weeks it has settled nicely. Happy with the stance for now. I also installed the IRO and Moog tie rod ends which tightened up the steering slightly.
