ok so right know i have spacers and shackles. i was wondering if i could just buy a 3 inch lift to add to my already 2 inch lift and would everything work aight. its a dd so not worryed about flex or anything. also i was wondering if i could just get away with a t case drop and shims instead of doing a sye kit?

xjbuddy

look at it this way. you've got a 2" kit already on it. and then adding a 3" Kit. 3+2=5. so with 5" of lift i dont think you will get away with a TC drop and shims. not to add you will need new shocks and a adj. trac bar because your front end will be out of wack.

jyaughn

so i would just be better off getting the rc 4.5 inch lift

jyaughn

will i need to longer brake lines with a 4.5 inch lift?

Probably so, yes. You can get either Dakota lines new at a parts store, or YJ lines from a junkyard and they should work for 4.5".

jyaughn

will i need them just for the front? what about the back?

JSwamper

i would recommend getting the 4.5 " lift.. i run 3"skyjacker with 2"coil and spacer"(same set up you want) with adj. track bar and drop pitman arm.. the lower control arms pull to close to the back of the front fender, and the controls arm will be quite steep and a rougher ride, also ive drove it daily for over a year with no t-case drop or sye(soon) i have vibration but still no problems,,,

jyaughn

thats probley what ill do. or i might just go ahead and get the 6.5 with a sye kit

JSwamper

you will need SYE kit and CV driveshaft with 4.5 as well.. I hve 5" and its just not enough for me, go with 6.5,,

jyaughn

thanks. i might do that. i have some other stuff i have to fix first. tho

you DONT need new brake lines or sye or CV driveshafts with the 4.5 inch RC lift. You dont even need a new track bar.. everything you need comes with the kit

jyaughn

what about with the 6.5 inch rc lift? will i need a sye then

00XJ

i need some ones opinion is the poly spacer and add a leafs safe or should i chuck out 200 extra bucks and get a coil set with new packs

jyaughn

the spacer and aal is safe but the coils and packs are better

00XJ

thats what i was thinking but i got get a 3 inch spacer kit for 80 bucks or a coil and aal for 225 my cheap side really wants the spacers....
