2" or 3" lift ???
I have a 99 on 235/75/15's I do not go offraoding, I use it for camping with my son and winter driving...I want to have the lowest cost lift without problems and "other needed" parts so I want to make sure I am correct ...
2" no other parts as far as track bar , brake lines...etc...just spacers and shackles...done?
3" Do I need a track bar with spacers and the AAL and do I need longer brake lines...sways are on...not taking them off for any reaso as it will be a hwy truck most of the time.
I do not want death wobble or anything....new to the game of Jeeps thanks!

2" is fine nothing needed,3" I have and just got lower control arms and adj track bar,I had death wobble so bad it was nuts,some get away without the track bar and control arms but it is a 50/50 chance you will not,I do not have exstended brake lines but should,id I did any serious offroading I would have them.
I would stay with 2".

Thanks man...just no"flexing" going on...just want a little clearance for some stups and rocks....small stuff...plus a little of the "Look" ...also a 2.5 would be nice...trying to get it so the tires do not look too big or too small..just right...plus I just put a new stock track bar on 2 weeks ago...

My easy lift consisted of a modified home brew.
New up country front springs $80
New main rear leafs w/re-used old leaf pack $150
Extended front sway bar links (cut and weld) $0
New shocks (all 4) needed anyway $120
265/70r15 Cooper A/T (needed) $450
15x8 Factory Jeep wheels $0
Removed rear sway bar. No noticable difference.
No other parts used
