Then just needs new wheels and shoes. These stock wheels and thirty inch tires are killing me. The thing with 4.5+ inch lifts is that you have to worry about things like steering, brakes, having to get long arms, etc.

Nice. I was thinking about moving up to 4.5 inches or so by using coil boosters and shackles. I still like being able to fit in my garage though lol. I think I'll see how 33s fit with my 3 inch lift and trimmed fenders before I do anything though.

Got the new coils on the front and new shocks as well, and I'm at 4 and a quarter all around give or take a very small amount. All of my brake lines are fine and have plenty of slack for flex still, and my LCA angle is still very acceptable which I'm pleased about. I was worried putting the front at the same height as the rear and possibly moving the axle backwards a bit would really do a number on my driveline and such causing horror, but not a single side effect popped up! Rides great, is all level and high now, and I love it. Haha. Just had to share. My 29.8" snow tires are so small now.. haha

God I wish I could, I'd love a new set of wheels with 3.75 Backspacing and some... 32's I think I'd go with. If OCC decides to help me with tuition again this semester, I'll have all the money I was going to have to spend on tuition this week to blow on my Jeep. Hopeful to say the least

Yep, would like to stay at a 10.5 wide tire. 31 or 32 will have to be decided once I know where my money has to go.
