Default Rusty's XJ Cherokee 2" Add-A-Leaf Kit

I'm lookin to add an inch or 2 as i have 29 inch tires on my 1998 which fit on fine and are fine for road but off road, my tires will hit the wheel well so i wanted a better suspension and a few places took me to this for something cheap, what do you all think?

I wanted to throw this in...I have some extra pairs of Toyota tacoma leafs. They gave me an inch and a half lift on my stock, good no sag, leafs. If you'd like a pair I would sell em cheap. They are used. But in good shape. I'm extremely happy with mine. But like I said just throwing this in as an option. You don't have to. No hard feelings. I work at a Toyota dealership turning wrenches. That's how I came across them. All you will need is new center pins/bolts. I reused my u bolts. They are full length leafs...2.5 inches wide. Fit perfect. They match the xjs leaf that's sits under the leaf with the eyes.

What year Tacomas work for this? If I were to buy a 3" lift would these work as well?

Late 90's early 2000's. I got 1.5 inches just from the leaf. I also have an one inch lift shackles to go on. Then 2 inch Spacers for the front. So ill sit 2 inch higher up front and 2.5 in the rear. Then I was thinkin of maybe 3 inch coils up front and 1 inch blocks in the rear later on. I don't wheel my jeep ever. So I figure the blocks should be ok. It's just a dd. So ya I think it could work for a 3 inch lift. It would be just like any other bastard pack. Like using s10 leafs and other XJ leafs. I have 3 pairs I believe. Willing to let them go cheap.
