sorry if there is already a thread about this but i cant find it and need the help. i already have a 2 or 3 inch lift. not really sure cause i bought it with it and i dont know much. but i want more now im thinkin of a budget boost considering i work 10 hours a week and dont have much money. i was thinking the two inch spacers. but would i want 2 inch for front and back? or different sizes. cause i always read about people putting a higher one on the back then in the front. and the spacers is all i would need right? no shocks or anything cause its just lifting the body.
if you have any pics that would be great so i can see what spacers would look like on a jeep cause i hear it lifts the body and leaves the bumper in the normal spot. so it might look dumb.
heres my jeep i dunno if its a 3 or not.


thanks!

There is no body lift for the xj as its a unibody, which means that the body & frame are 1 in the same! The 2" budget boost for the xj is a 1 3/4" puck that goes ontop of ur front springs, & in the rear it will either come with a block for under the leaf springs or a longer shackle!

Also to know how much lift u have mesure from the center of the rim to the bottom of ur fender flare! (Stock is 17")

oh really? wow well see this is why i need help i honestly didnt know that haha thanks!

i feel like a retard now ha. but thanks for the help. nut since the budget lift is messing with the suspension instead of just lifting the body dont you need shocks and all that other stuff?

So i could lift my xj up with just putting a coil spacer on top of both of them and a block under my leaf springs.... I have a 1998 cherokee classic with stock suspension looking to lift it up somehow some way

ha im right with you trying to figure this out. thats what its sounding to me. but i know its weird when you lift it it messes with stearing and control.

im looking at autozone ... they got a lift or lowering kit that has a block but its aluminum and aluminum breaks
