this is my 2nd xj and its my first real build i am new to this, and really just looking for idias, suggestions and advice ,
my rig is a 91'+ 96' mixup , i have a 96 xj and had it for about a year then got rear ended by a huge freak'n dumptruck bummer but luckly i found a decent low mileage 91 xj laredo all power and the tow package now i have had her about 2 months and have worked through a lot of issues, aparently the steering column was swaped out and a different better more solid setup was installed .........by some one who might not have been ...... qualified
long story short all good now all new coolent set up , added trany cooler and oil cooler from the 96' and a 3.5" or 4" rub-con exsp lift with shackles slip-yoke elim swaped rear end, d35 for cry8.25 and just yesterday started cutting and put on geolander 33"x12.50" on 15" rims (new pics in a min)
ok so here i sit with questions ok
now the amount of travle i am trying to geam not getting i need more travle so what i am looking at is the RC 6.5" long arm but how do i get optimum rear travle( what upgrades do i need to consider, bar pin elim?) and idias for shock upgrades wheel spacers? i need help

That would tech, or Cherokee chat. But I would reading up on COG vs. flex. You might not want to go that high

i was looking at also putting a long arm lift on prob RC, only like a 4.5 with my 33"s that should not F my COG up to bad and with all the cutting im doing i will have full range and flex
