Default Supreme Suspensions XJ Spacer & Leaf Lift?

Anyone have any experience with these, see link below. I am building a "Trail Rig" Cherokee so to speak. I am not looking to do anything treacherous with the jeep, just basic offroad stuff. Will this kit hold up to my needs/requirements? Amazon has this kit and advertises it as a 3" front & 2" rear lift.

You will hate it. Anyrhing with add a leafs is going to ride like a dump truck. Especially offroad. New leafs are best when lifting the rear.

Crown, Dorman and Genral Spring all make HD leafs that give about 1.5 to 2 inches over stock. You can then use adjustable shackles if you want a bit more height
