I had a 2" body lift on both of my CJs. Easy to install and instant room for larger tires. I would install one on my XJ, but I'd have to install a frame first.

The body lift is totally easy, I did mine in no time flat!  Give me a shout if you would like a hand.  Did you do a MM lift yet?  If not you'll have to redrill your fan shroud. 
Incedently, I just noticed that one of my front bushing popped out somewhere, is this a bad thing?  Anyone know where I can get a new one.

Bushings are overrated.  I lost the busings in my lower control arms 3 times.  finally just welded them right in.

The long, almost cone shaped ones?  I wouldn't worry too much about it, but I wouldn't go sitting on your hood any time soon.  You may want to replace them, but it shouldn't cause any damage.

So Geoff, when is all this coming together?  The rear axle swap, front gears, and your sye?  What kind of 35's are you looking at?
