SAS swap lift leveling
From what I can tell, you have too much positive caster. Your pinion is up really high. How does that thing handle?

its hard for me to identify them, but those look like they could be jeep wagoneer front leaf springs which just so happen to be a popular swap in the front of xj's.
could you measure them eye to eye?
as for the caster comments above, i cant tell from the pictures, but it looks like the knuckles could have been cut and turned to keep a good pinion angle, but I could be wrong. can you measure your caster for us? (you can do this with an angle finder on top of the upper ball joint) you want around 5 to 7 degrees with the top ball joint towards the back)
