I will and take a while lot of pics. I'm a noob as well. At least to XJs. I have been working on my own cars since I was 16..23 now. But only been an actual mechanic for about a year. But shouldn't be hard. I'll deff do a right up.

Well don't think the leafs will work. Lots of cutting to do. The top two leaves on each side are identical but the bottom on is different on each side. I wanted to use that one because it would bolt right off. But it won't work I don't think. So I took the very bottom leaf that's curved opposite....toward the ground. Not sure if they will work but I am willing to try. They are short. But very thick. No idea what they will do if anything. So I guess no leafs unless you want me to cut them up. Cuz the top two leafs wrap around. And thy are thick and I'm sure hard to cut.

I used toyota tacoma springs off a 2wd 1990 ish truck and got 3 in lift. The springs were about 2.5 inches wide and I cut the eyes off and used the whole pack.

Hrm. Ok. Well I may have to do that. That's probably close to the same year of the springs I have. Newer for sure. But not sure what year exactly. What did you use to cut the eyes off? I have a good size grinder....then a small one. But I imaging it would take forever.
