Going SOA on the back will lift it about 6". Seems a bit high for a ploy truck.

lifting the front to match a rear SOA involves way more than just lift springs. This is not a cheap endeavor you're contemplating.

Xj perches are further apart than MJ perches so no matter what, going SOA involves welding.

then you might want to scale back the plans a bit. check out the projects section at the comanche club and you can peruse what other guys have done.
