I Used the dreaded autozone blocks for a few years now with no issues. Spring wrap is likely, but the blocks are fine, just check the u bolts from time to time, they like to work loose. I've beating up on the old xj pretty good with no issues.

would you be able to go this route? : 3" coil spacers are cheap and work (although frowned apon), and the rear you could run either a full length 3" add-a-leaf or a rough riding short add-a-leaf and some shackles? that would get you about 3-3.5 inches out back. I myself an running a rough country 3" beginner kit with coils and add a leafs. I netted closer to 4" with the long add a leaf and 3" up front. I added a 1.5" coil spacer to the front and a half inch block plus a degree shim under the back springs. Running 31x10.50 mud claws with no rub
