I have a 4" Superlift, on my 98 XJ, 4x4, 4dr.
I was wondering what other things I can do to cheaply lift it more?
I don't know much about lifts, newly into it all.
Was told Spacers/Springs were the only way after a lift.
So what is the max coil spring size can I have?
And a link to some cheap effective spacers would be nice, the biggest possible.

save up money for larger lift. piece it together using craigslist and other websites.id recommend not going over 6" in my personal experiences xj over 6" are way to tall and very tippy. blocks
full leafs and coil springs

X2, get shackles. Rough Country makes 1.5"-2" adjustable shackles for 60 bucks and just about every suspension company makes coil spacers. E-bay has them for like $30.

go with a 5.5 inch coil from RE but you can run what ya got easily im at 6 inches and 33's and i wish i was at 4inches. why do you want to be taller? just to be taller or because you need clearance? id say stay where you are and wheel it hard. but add a sliders and belly pan. plus if you go taller you should add an sye and you need new shocks so the "cheap" inches your looking for isnt really cheap. you alway get what you pay for as well.

RE stands for Rubicon express. without your $1500 sound system im sure the rear would be taller im just saying
id go with some taller leafs, coil springs, and new shocks. go RE too a little expensive but worth the money. also you will have to get a new track bar and possibly a drop pitman arm.

Yea I'm getting 600$ for it today so going to throw it all into more lift or a bumper.
I shall miss it :'(
But Okay let me get some prices from RE, i'll see what to do.
Also Once my girlfriend finds the camera charger I'll get some pictures on here, I think it's a 4" lift, it came on it when I bought it.
I have 33x12.5 BFG terrains, and I don't think they'd fit on anything with less then a 4".
I'll upload some pictures now of last night.
