Your looking for a kit but you are doing all the work yourself? As in installing? Or building? Take a look at Claytons rear kit if you know how to weld and have a little jeep know how.

Scary thing about Clayton is it requires you to notch the frame for the mount. RK mount just bolts to bump stop and the you weld in place

the only XJ kits are clayton and RK. you'll get much better performance designing a double triangulated 4 link yourself and using coilovers. that being said, i think you should buy a good set of leaf springs and call it a day.
