I've been down this road before with my XJ , and decided to go with the LUK clutch replacement kit. Affordable and OEM spec and has provided me with years of reliable service with daily driving and plenty of abuse offroad. Do a search online and there will be many favorable reviews in regards to this brand and Jeeps. Stay away from clutches like Centerforce if you do a lot of city/stop-and-go driving. The cramps in your left leg will be miserable and there's almost no modulation. It's like on or off as your only options and it's not forgiving to driver or driveline. Been there done that.

Good luck!

Do not waste your money on a stage two clutch. Not in a daily driver. After about fifty k klics the diaphram springs bend and cause shifting problems not to mention other issues. Centerforce has in the past used luk clutch discs on their 1 and 2 kits.
Just picked up a luk cluch kit for like $260 from auto value on 52  se. Slave , release bearing , pilot , pressure plate etc.
When I raced in the sand drags would launch at 7000 rpm. Always used a luk as it was still soft on launch but hooked up. Tryed centerforce their as well and to many other problems.
