Lift kit

Hello, I have a 89 XJ with a RE 4.5" superflex kit that has non adjustable control arms. I am running 32X11.50 tires. I want to add coil spring spacers but I dont know if the control arms ar long enough. I thing that they will hit on the mounting brackets. Anyone have any ideas to get more lift without spending more money on adjustable arms?

Find a set of RE drop brackets used (I got mine for $150) and you can run your current arms up to around 6.5", and have a better ride to go with it.

You can probably add a 1" spacer now, but its gonna ride like crap.
 
I did the control arm drop brackets also, as well as 2 inch spacers and 2.5 inch blocks in the back. my ride is still fine and i flex like i have long arm. then you could go bigger with the tires also.
