Anyone have an answer for me? I'm in for another precious day at work lol. I'll admit my research was rather limited last night.
Just looking for some insight. Thanks again C.F.

I've only taken my XJ out on light trails but nothing crazy though. Based on my past escapades in my 89, I'm very confident in what my 98 could do. I just don't wheel her hard cause she's the only vehicle we have and being on a TIGHT budget too. Between kids and all the other overhead associated with running a household; Upcountry seems to be in the cards for now.
Anyways, to help me weigh options:

Any of you folks running heavy duty shocks, springs, and leafs? How do you like them? How much sagging you seen since the installation? How about your overall handling and performance?
To those of you who has a small lift.

Which one do you recommend? Looking for the best bang for my buck. What are some of their merits? How do you like it? Yada yada yada.......

I'm more motivated buy QUALITY VERSUS PRICE personally. Im just wanting to do this right the first time. Thanks again C.F.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Ome sells a 1.5 inch lift with everything for 800ish i think
