not really looking for lift,just need less sag in the rear when i pull my boat and have the xj loaded with weeken gear(coolers,tents,dog,etc)
I thought about "helper" leaf springs,but air shocks seem so much easier to install, anybody got any ideas
heres how it looks loaded for a weekend trip.
it is not my daily driver, as i have a company truck,but i do drive it on the weekends and on trips,so ride quality is somewhat of a factor when it is not loaded.My wife does drive it to work from time to time,if it snows,etc. thanks yall.

Lol, the ol xj squat! I slapped a couple of extra leafs from another xj in. It gave me about a 2" lift and doenst squat anymore, maybe use just one and see how that does...it still rides nice too.

Looks like to got a lot of tongue weight but even leveling it out would not help much. I would get an add a leaf kit.

Sell the jeep and buy a cummins?

I would look into an airbag kit in your situation. These kit mount between the frame rails and the axle... normally above the leaf spring. I also think that you are towing too much weight with your XJ.

Air shocks will help, but helper springs or heavier springs is the real fix.

True air shocks will cause the xj to ride rough due to the stiffness of the shocks. AN airbag style helper will not change the ride.. until you add air to them.

Gee oh Dee

Get a weight transfer hitch for your trailer, to put some of the tongue weight onto the front wheels of the jeep. Just make sure your trailer hitch is class III, and well attached.

would be pretty tough to tow anything with just a cummins

Har har.

Airbags are much better than airshocks. You'll never know they are there till you air them up.
