Hey bud you sould do a Spring Over Axle , i dont think anyone has a 4" AAL for our X's. here is a link to the SOA Dead Link Removed
 






an AAL would only give you 1.5 to 2 inches at best. You could do more than one but your ride would be very bad. For that kind of height on the rear you should do an SOA (spring over axle). Basically just weld new spring perches on the top of your axle and install the springs. thats good for 5 - 6 inches of lift.

Edit, damn chris beat me to it lol.

You got to be faster than that Sean!
 






If you don't want to go with the SOA you could go with a pair of rear springs from Superlift.
 






the SOA would be much cheeper
 






Thanks for everyones input. off to the drawing board
