Default Need Some Schooling on WJ lifts

Alright I have a Buddy that just got his WJ up and running again, Riding with me in my XJ has made him want to make it a lil more capable. Were looking at lifts between 2 and 4.5". I know there different limitations on how much you can push stock components like control arms, track bars, ect. I need to know where that point is. He's not ready to go to extreme so were likely looking at staying with stock arms, what the max lift to do so? I also need to know any other odds and ends that will let me help him with this. The further I look into lifts the more it stands out to me that WJs and XJs aren't very similar. We would like to go full springs and probably 5100s.

This sounds like a good question for the Grand Cherokee Tech section.
