Are you creating a mall crawler?
Usually, "up side down" with regard to automobiles means you owe more money than it's worth. In the case of an XJ with 10" of lift... well, there's no hidden meaning there.

it's as easy as putting a 2" lift on...
only problem is steering angles are so outta wack they stink to drive whithout a cross over system.

Ten inch lift that should be fun to drive,keep the air bags hooked up and a good roll cage plus you should make you have good seat belts probably 5 point harness some grab handles and one of those stickers that say (if you can read this then please turn me back over)or something like that but you get what I'm getting at.

my xj has 6 inches of lift plus bushwacker cutout flares that opened the wheel well about 4 inches but when its in full flex the 35-12.50-15 swampers still hit. i figure i need another 3 to 4 inches of lift? oh yeah its is already a white knuckle driver with the wonderful groove wandering i am suprised i haven't been pulled over for suspicion of dui! if i could figure out how to put pictures on here i would.

do you have a photobucket.com account?
use the [img] code to paste in the forum.
for the 35's add some bumpstop. not more lift and a wj or aftermarket crossover steering and drop the track bar bracket, that will help get rid of the wander.
http://www.rocky-road.com/jeepott.html has a pretty drastic crossover system, I'm not sure I'd endorse it on account of the mounting, it'll definately put your steering angle back where they belong tho.
