Very nice Jeep. Clean. I love the radio. As for the lift kit, i would look into rough country. They are a great company with warranties. I would go with a 3" lift and 32s. My stock jeep had 31s with minor rubbing. But if you wheel alot and still a daily driver i would go with the 4.5 with 33s. lots of options and things to think about before you lift. But overall..Your jeep rocks!

For your info I would buy an aftermarket head soon and replace it for good measure for under 500.00 bucks it will insure you a long lasting motor. I've done it twice already one because of a cracked head the 2nd for good measure.

Here's a link to the lift/tire thread. You'll get tons of ideas for your XJ there. Looks like a great Xj though.
