can i can some pics of
Lifts 6 inches or bigger preferably the driveshaft angle
On the xj there is a 5 inch block liftin the back and even with the axle rotated i can see another inch in a half of lift
seems like the pinion angle would be too far off

^ i agree blocks aslong as they are correctly made are perfectly fine to use on a vehicle. I would not want to use 5" for rocks tho but mud i would. I dont see why every one gets so mad at this.
Nice jeep btw

You are correct the block probably wont but the added leverage of blocks loves to snap the heads off of leafspring centering pins and shortly after that you get to see your Jeep with the axle out from under it. Most idiots use blocks I don't care if there aluminum, steel or pieces of god they are still blocks, they still put unnecessary load on the leafs and axle. I would put $100 right now that a Jeep with shackle relocation and full packs would out wheel your Jeep on rocks without a doubt. You will NEVER get the flex out of your block/leaf combo a Jeep without blocks can get.
