Default Trying to figure this all out......

So, I have a '94 XJ with a 3" AAL, I want to add 2" spacers and shackles. Now, I've been reading up on all the alignment issues that I will run into by getting up to 5" of lift. This is where I start getting confused.......

I don't want to spend an ***** load of $

But, I've notice will the 3" AAL kit I have now it looks as if the LCA's are pulling the front axle towards the back of the jeep, Looks like my bump stops in the front coils are closer to the front then being centered.

So, I've read up and it seems that the higher you go, the sh**ier the ride quality is. This is my DD, so ride quality is important. I also, don't do any extrame krawling, or mudding, more towards mild trail rides, maybe some mild rocks, and mud.

So, my couple of questions for you guys is:

What would you guys reconmend as a set-up keeping the 3" AAL and adding 2" spacers and shackles?

And if you use adjustable LCA's is that the same as being able to adjust your caster?



Thanks again, (as always)

At 5" of lift you should really get some Dropbrackets and adjustable CAs
