Just moved from Colorado to Alabama, still looking to lift my 2000 Cherokee "Freedom"
Bought in 2008 towards the end of the year was in really good shape, few small leaks (front and rear diffs starting to leak a little, and another small leak on the t-case), rear leafs seem a little worn when there is anywhere around 100lbs in the trunk (30x9.50's) rub when turning.
I know for stock suspension the 30x9.50's are little on the big side but im wanting to lift around them i was looking at something like...

My question is i've heard that my model XJ, the 2000 Freedom (Sport) has a low-pinion front which may require a T-case spacer or possibly a Slip-Yoke eliminator but would only really need it on anything above a 2", is this true?
Is there anything else other then the kit from RE that i would need to purchase, or should be looking into? Would the add-a-leaf fix the small big of sag i seem to have?
Would like to note that when i tow a trailer i don't get that same rubbing of the tires that i get when there is weight in the trunk.
