My stock leafs are pretty flat. so im thinking of just getting new leafs with the 3" lift with it. So im looking for new leafs.

Dukie, I appreciate your help. I will probably start with about 3 - 4" of lift. Using junkyard parts. And eventually move on to control arm drop brackets and go a bit higher. Mostly I wanna be able to hit the trails here with confidence, but I also wanna get people to stop talking crap about my XJ.
Gonna lift front and then make back match.

 

 

I have a 2000 XJ with a Rubicon budget boost. I want to upgrade to full length coils (2-2 1/2 longer). Would a V8 ZJ do the trick? I have a heavy winch bumper up front. Thanks

 

IIRC, v8 zj coils are no longer than ours, they are just far stiffer, so they don't settle as much when loaded.

 

Who has a COMPLETE rear leaf lift? or where can i buy brand new leafs.

i baught an 89 xj it has a lot of potential.but it has the bendix 9 brake system. i heard that it would be easier to swap the abs w\ non abs rather than deal with the bendix sys. i am lost as where to begin,and what i can use on the existing system. i did read some stuff on the bendix.and i want it out of my life. i do have an 87 yj 4.2 and a 00xj 4.0 , can i use either one of them as a reference ? any help would be appreciated or just point me in the right direction

 

Do some searching man. You ARE on the internet you know.

 

*Update after a nice trip out a few weeks ago I had 2 holes in my wheel well they are to long but now i have some take offs off a 2006 Rubicon (TJ) they work great*

 

So i have a 97 grand inline 6 if i were to switch out my springs with dakota springs and make a bastard pack (4 inches) what else would i need to adjust.......im a lone jeephead

 

Can't do a bastard pack on a grand Cherokee

 

Would the springs work alone or do i need to get longer swaybar, stering linkage etc.

 

theyre actually a touch shorter than XJ coils unloaded.

 

I thought the WJ has a 5x5 bolt pattern? A buddy of mine his brother totaled his 2001 WJ, Im thinking of snagging the all the usuable parts from it. I just wanna clear this up.
