I would do the 4.5 inch coils bastard pack they dont sag i have them to prove it the long arm upgrade 650 is expensive but i did it and its well worth it rustys IMO sucks theyre joints are horrible and customer service sucks rough country has really stepped their game up and i would recommend them plus if you call them and tell them your a member of cherokee forum theyll give you 10% off
Exactly follow the info! Rusty for coils/springs & Honestly RC joints aren't the best but they will send you free replacements which is nice!
Do the LA upgrade..its worth it and at 4.5" your gonna want it.

i would recomend and SYE, an extended drive shaft, steering stablizer...all of these depend on what size tire you will be running. if you are running a 33 inch tire you might want to look into some lower gearing as well. oh and if you havent ordered the lift yet i would get a lift with full leaf spings, i wouldnt run an add a leaf over 3 inches of lift. but good luck bud

Built a plate to cover up my front crossmember today ! It's nothing fancy but it really cleaned up the look of the front end !

WEll, if those are factory skid plates I see underneath in the bumper pictures, then yeah, it's an upcountry, and you have come upon the Holy Grail of Stock XJ awesomeness.
