Well I’ve had these lower CA for a couple months now and although they did help a bit it’s not enough with my slightly lifted XR. I’ll be installing MetalCloak Geometry correction brackets this weekend to bump up my caster.

I can see that being the case. I adjustable arms on my XR with a Rockkrawler lift to make up for the weight I added. I got these arms to help with the my wife's JLUR, which is getting my take off XR suspension.

Define "Slightly lifted XR". With what and by how much?

Up to 2 1/2” springs from the factory 1 1/2”. So 2 1/2” over factory regular Rubicon.

I thought maybe you had lifted it a little more over what the XR package gave you.

Yes it is a little over an inch taller than factory XR.
I Took out the 1 1/2” OE XR Mopar springs and put in 2 1/2” Rock Krawler triple rate springs.

2022 392 XR
Question: I’ve been thinking about getting the Clayton 392 Performance Coil Package to replace the stock XR springs. They claim the 392 XR will get 1/2” to 3/4” increase. Another member installed the springs and did mention it’s about 1-1/2” raise without winch. In this case, should I still go with this Mopar front LCAs? Or time to look into adjustable LCAs? I’ve been very careful about any suspension tweaks. And don’t plan on any further lift. Any insight is appreciated!

Personally, I would just drop the Mopars in while doing the lift since they're so cheap. See how it drives, and only go adjustable if required. You'll likely be just fine with the Mopars.
