Does anyone know if the adjustable lower control arms that come with a rustys 6.5" xj lift kit arebthe same as a 4.5" lift kit? Or would they work? It says they have 2" of adjustment over stock.

Im looking to get the best 31" m/t for the money and a lift that will clear them without cutting, my current leafsprings are shot so the kit will need new leaf packs. Any suggestions?

33x10.5x15 on Stock XJ Rims?
How much back spacing did you end up going with, 4.5? Did you have any issues with fender rubbing with the offset rims? I rub right now with 4" of lift 31"s and soft 8 with 4.5" of back spacing.

Treadwright guard dogs and my RE 3.5 Super ride clears without trimming and DT8000 shocks.
