Default Best 3" lift kit

What's the best 3" lift kit w/full replacement leaf springs for a 2001 xj? Not looking to make a rock crawler. I just need to replace the suspension on my Cherokee and it seems cheaper to lift than to go OEM. Also don't want to end up with a real stiff ride.

I like my Trailmaster 3" lift. It rides better than my buddy's XJ with a 3" rough country and my buddy's stock TJ.
