Decided to keep the XK for the wife. I will eventually trade my Altima in for a 1/2 ton truck. Just dont do enough towing to justify the big rig.
Updates on some of my junk:
tore appart the TJ and replaced all the steel armor with Aluminum
and finally got it back on the road
Still using the XK as a tow rig
And now that the TJ is done, I can get more done to the XK. Front springs have really started to sag, and the new tires rub

That is a NICE looking TJ!!! I'm sure the XK looks killer towing the TJ, lol.

Thanks Guys!
Between the new 255.75.17s (which measure almost 33 inches mounted) and the front end sag I cant wheel the XK at all. Hell I can barely take it off a curb too fast and it gets into everything.
Can I just run the OME front springs?or do I need to get their struts too? I think the rear is fine as well, and I am putting in air bags for when I tow with it.
Appreciate any advice

You can run just the springs. their struts are the same size as stock. Though if you have your original front struts, you may want to swap them out anyway.
Swapped them out less than 2 years ago. might be worth it though if the front end is already appart

What 255/75R17 tires do you have that measure 33 inches? A 255/75R17 is 32 inches tall

Kenda Klever M/Ts. I have to admit I was a little shocked to say the least.
