We all must be in a good mood this am.

I figured someone would post that pic of the XJ on an S10 frame or something and another guy would be like yeah man bl all the way. Lol


Pirate is no place for newby's lol

 

No Problem!! There are alot of people on these forums that forget they were a Noob at one time, and asked the same questions.

To answer your question. For a Framed rig a body lift can sometimes be considered the same as a BB lift for XJ and the Grand crowd. They are basically putting spacers between the Body and the frame, This gives more clearance for larger tires and or flex. Since we don't have a frame we can ONLY get this added clearance by lengthening (Lifting) the suspension. If you want to lift a TJ 4" you can do 2" spacers for the springs and 2" spacers for the frame and very nearly call it a complete lift for around $250 or less. The same lift for an XJ will run $400-600, just for the suspension springs, and you will still need to address Drivelines, Brakes, Shocks, Control arms, Trackbar, swaybar.

 

I have those tires and love them, I'm going to get some for the Red XJ too when it is lifted. But when I put them on mine at 4.5" with trimmed fenders I didn't like it so I added another 1" and I think it looks great now.

 

I merged all of these threads, they are all asking the same group of questions.

 

I am not normaly awake this early

 

I figured that out when I was posting and it got all mixed up

 

Well i think im just gonna get the 4.5 with 33s i think thats my best bet
