Default Quick lift question.

sorry i know this has been talked about before, didnt find an exact answer when i searched.. so here it is.


so i have 3' coils in the front and a bastard pack in the rear.

the shocks and sway bar disconnects i have are for 4-6 inches of lift.

i am going to pick up an adjustable track bar, longer lower control arms and also order a 2' spacer and shackle.

besides brake lines and a t case drop, will i have everything i need to make it go together properly?

alignment is on the list too.
thanks in advance!

You may need a longer pitman arm to correct the increased angle....Good Luck!!

Okay, thank you!

Think a zj one would do the trick, or would it need to be longer than that?

What are you running, like 50" tires, that is a hellvalota lift.
