Just did a 3" Rusty's Off Road lift on my 94XJ. Has an Add A Leaf on the rear, new HD coils on front and new shocks all around, with new steering stablizer. Not impressed at all with Rusty's. Customer service sucks, and the rear is already sagging down again. I put the lift on last week. It was level with front when I finished and now the rear has dropped about 1.5-2" below the front.
So I want to get the back in the air again. Should I go blocks or shackels? I don't do any extreme wheelin. It is my daily driver. It will only see trails durring deer season and will only be in 4x4 with ice/snow.

I went with Shackles. Heard to many horror stories of blocks spitting out. I think mine flexes more with the shackles than they did before. Also only took me about 2 hours to be finished with the install. Cost would be about the same by the time you bought new u bolts and blocks.

3 inch Rancho lift with 2 inch spacers in front and 2.6 inch gain from shackle in back. sits level now.

Shackles, definitely.

Blocks are the devil. May be a necessary evil, but avoid those and do shackles. As said, they will help flex.

Yea. I def need to flex a bit more. If I had a couple more inches on the rear then I could have went all the way to the end b4 my tire rubbed. Puttin on shackles this weekend.

Shackles... cut off the end of your exhaust pipe though while you have it apart.... My lift shackles rubbed my pipe. Maybe yours will clear... mine didn't and would have been a lot easier to cut with the shackle/spring out of the way.

i did the same lift on mine, pain to do i wish i would have not been cheap and paid for the full leaf pack overall i still think rustys is a good value 270$ for a 3inch lift is nice i added a set of their 3/4 inch lift shackles which are beefy as hell easy double the thickness of stock plus a grease fitting

Nate.S.

Wow. Not the response I expected from a mod. Way to be a dick. Just figured I would ask for some help. Remind me to never ask you.

As for that lift block pic, what were they thinkin? Lol

But I just bought some shackles. Thanks for the help folks.
