91 Jeep XJ lift
I am doing something a little different... Building an offroa d tow rig. I bought a set of Chevrolet 1500 leaf springs. It adds up to an 8.5" lift. I now I will need a slip yoke eliminating and drive shaft upgrade in the rear, shocks and coils, track bar, pitman arm drop, New steering and a few other odd pieces, but after all that is this thing going to take the stress of the lift? Anything special I will need to do? And cheapest route for this plan?

I plan on welding stiffeners. I am a welder and have multiple machines. I am not sure what axles the jeep has as I am not a jeep guy... I grew up in box chevys. I do plan on putting tons under it. I will be using this rig to tow my offroad camper.
