What all do you need...?
I'm ready for winter, but I need new tires. I also want to lift my car. I don't want to buy tires, then buy a lift kit and another set of tires for my XJ. My point is that I don't want to buy 8 tires.. So, I'm wondering, what do you need for a full lift kit. I want to make my stock XJ to have either 2" or 3" of lift all the way around so it's even. I also want to run 31" tires on it. So I'm a little confused on what you need to have a complete lift "kit". Thanks in advance!

Coils, spacers are cheaper. Leafs, Add-a-Leaf and shackles are cheaper. Shocks. Remove your rear sway bar and you have bar pin eliminators for the shocks, get another set from a JY and you have enough for all shocks. Maybe longer sway bar connects. Search the forum long enough and you'll find everything i missed

just run a simple coil spacer and shackle lift. it will give you 2 inches of lift and you can throw 31's under there with some trimming it will look really nice. thats what i have. if you need any help on install info let me know just did mine 2 weeks ago.
