hey im looking for a 3 inch lift so i can fit 31/10.50's without trimming, but i wanna keep the price under 300, but still have decent quality. my jeep is a 93, and my rear leaf springs are flat or maybe just barely up, what do you think would be a good lift? and with a 3 inch do i need to do anything with my brake lines and such? thanks for the info

I don't know of a quality 3" lift for under $300.00. Have you researched anything yet and found possibilities?

SJ has a 3" lift but everybody says it's a POS kit.

I am running a Rough Country kit (entry level kit is in the $300 range) and i am happy with the kit. Many people I know run RC products.

This is the kit I run and love it.$210 with free shipping.I beat the crap out of it ,literally.If you get it and have the 8.25 rear then tell them and they will send 8.25 u-bolts.The u-bolts are the only difference in this kit.If you don't tell them your axle then they will send the D-35 bolts.This kit comes with coils,AALs,shocks and all hardware.Put in a bastard pack and don't use the AALs for the back.

Gee oh Dee

Anything under $300 will be coil and leaf spring spacers. Not complicated, easy to do. I'm not sure if you'll get 3" out of a spacer lift, though.

Mine was $200 and didn't come with spacers.It had the AALs which I didn't use.I put a bastard pack in the rear and it's holding up great.

mine was a new front spring and long AAL in the rear. plus all shocks and hardware needed.

I had the same kit and agree it's the best you can get for the price. I bastard packed mine with another set of XJ springs (2 longest from each side stacked into the existing pack) and used the AAL that came with the lift kit in place of the bottom spring in the stock pack. I netted about 3.25 inches after settling. I have upgraded stuff piece by piece, but it's a great place to start.
I put 31's under it and rubbed the LCA's at full lock, but solved that with a set of aftermarket LCA's I bought from somebody on this site for $35. Now I have 33's under it and still don't rub.

ok, im looking at that one you posted a link of, and it seems like a good deal. one thing though, please excuse my ignorance, but what is a bastard pack? and why is it better than using the aal? thanks for the replies
