well I lifted the old jeep today with some help, 3 inch zone kit with a 1 inch t case drop, steering stabilizer and the added nitro shock upgrade, took us 8 1/2 hours but it looks killer and I'm stoked to get her some new shoes soon!

Looks good! I was looking at the same kit for my Nephew's XJ. Did the add a leaf lift the back-end up enough, his current rear springs are shot. We were debating whether to go with the spring pack or add a leaf. Make sure you get an alignment and tighten it all up again in a couple of weeks.

yeah the alignment will come when I get back to my auto class when school starts and the bolts are all gonna get tightened once I hit the next 100 miles, its a great lift and I was worried about my leafs sagging but they ended up coming out just a tad bit more then the front, a hell of a lot more then I expected.
