thats kind of what I was hoping I've got about a 3-4 inch coil and the coil buckets that were on the axles when i got them are shot so i was looking at doing roughly the same as what you did plus then you can get the coils directly under the factory coil bucket.

You saying thats only 2 inches? 

On a 30 the coils sit right on top of the axle, plus you have to account for the larger diameter axle tube. If you have a 3" coil, my bet is you're sitting around 7 inches of lift.

You're about the same height as me I bet...
Dylan is sitting on close to 8 or 9 inches and 35's and he's a hair taller than me..

Right on, it is still about as low as you can go on 37's for an XJ. Any lower (like mine was when I first did it) sucks bad. I had like 3 inches of up travel was all.
