done with blocks, looking for suggestions
looking to replace my beautiful sagged out stock leafs and 3" blocks with a 3"-3.5" leaf pack. (not level anyway, i think im 1/2" lower in the rear so preferrably 3.5 leafs)... still on stock shackles too of course.. wondering if i need reloaction bracket or not.. i guess with minimal lift gains..
what i'm getting at is i finally set aside some money to finish the jeep that i lifted for $100 lol, so any suggestions on getting rid of the bs in the rear and getting the 3.5 with new leaf packs i need?
side note: im picking up a double shear track bar from iro, but their 3.5 packs are 3 hundred something.. just figured i can find a better price than that. trying tofind some extended bumpstops too.. going for a mild cog build

Well did spme measuring, definately have 3" blocks in the rear.. Originally i think i was gonna get shackles to make up the 1/2". I ht some numbers on the front coils too.. From inside the coil.. Bottom perch to bottom of the isolator on the frame is 15". Looking for a reference there

xj leaves are pretty much flat, lower the back end of it down 6" while leaving the front in the stock location and that's what you end up with.
Heres what my custom shackle relocators (lower profile than all of them out there except the froelich no lift relocators) looked like with a 1.5" shackle and some lift springs, now imagine those springs flat with even less, thinner stock leaves (these are clayton 7 leaf packs).
