Start out by replacing the rear axle!!!!!!!!!

Well I know the diffs are a must I was wondering about the suspension .

I am used to lifting k5's and such

6" lift and a sawzall.

There's a guy from Cherokee Forum who's got 37"s on an XJ with 2.5" of lift. It's just bumpstopped properly and has long arms in the front.

Just depends on how high you want to sit, and if you want any up-travel. I'm running 37's right now on about 6", with a y-link front suspension.

If he doesn't want to trim the body, he's going to have to go way the heck up in the air...I'd say 8 inches or so. I'd really try to convince him to trim a bit to keep it lower, even for drive-ability on the road. Trimming the front and rear fenders and setting it up on 5" or slightly more, I'd say, would be the best bet (it will alleviate stress on steering components and screwy trac-bar placement) .

Plus, you're going to buy a slip yoke eliminator for that sort of height (4.5" and above). Regardless of what anyone may tell you, it is a must.
