Standard bastard pack. Grab a leaf pack from any vehicle with more arch in it's leaf springs as long as they're 2.5" wide. Dakota's or blazers are popular

No. The only thing that matters about the main leaf is the eyes. Make sure they aren't cracking. The springs you add will be doing all the work because of the higher arch, and the capacity of your main leaf won't matter.

I'm running 3.5" on 33x10.50's I had to trim front and rear and bumpstop Xj's are plagued with small wheel openings so anything larger then 31 will need Cutting
