I am thinking about picking up this tow hook bar for the front of the XJ. Do you guys think it is a good product? Will this bar also help to eliminate some of the flex in the frame (add rigidity) when wheeling?

I'm sure it will help rigidity plus distribute the tow hook load to both sides of the frame. The downside is you can't use a front skid

But there are also front hitches that do the same thing, plus you can use the receiver for a winch. I'd get one of those instead.
