Default Leaf pack or AAL?

So I bought a XJ recently and noticed that the rear pinion is angled toward the Tcase, instead of level. When you let the clutch out the axle rotates up and almost binds the ujoint. So I'm looking for a solution. I dont want to spend alot right now so I can pick up some good tires and at least drive the Jeep. Im temped to buy a 3in, full length AAL but worried it wont fix my issue. I think just repossioning the axle would help a little bit. It has 3in blocks on it, which are coming out, and Im sure they are contributing to the twisting. You guys think that removing the blocks and adding a leaf with lift shackles would solve my problem? Just want to get some reinforcement before I pull the trigger on some new parts. Thanks
