98 xj 3 inch lift project, i need your help!
Well I just joined this forum because Im not exactly sure what I need to get for my xj. All ive decided is that I want to do either a 2" to 3" lift with about 30" tires. Ive seen some posts on rough country suspension systems and ill probably end up getting that. But what other things am I going to have to get, brake lines, control arms, steering stabilizer, ect.
And with the tire, Im lost, I have no idea what width the tires should be nor the wheels. Keep in mind this is a DD and im on a budget at the moment of about 2k to 2500 so I want it cheap but I dont want to sacrafice quailty.

you wont need anything and people on this forum are lazy. you act like you were never new. any way with a 2-3 lift and 30 inch tires you well need nothing the but lift kit and tires it self. go with the rough country lift kit its a good start base. wow i wasted 30 seconds to write that in which frank could of done the time. this site has turned into naxja pretty sad. and its funny cause most people who come here are people treated like **** on naxja.

yeah you wont need anything like snowboard said, you can buy a steering stabalizer to help with the "slightly larger tires" but its not neccesary and dang you've got 2k bucks to spend? i wish i had that much, you can do ALOT!!!! with that much money to spend

Better have a look at some of my posts before you start throwing the word lazy around.
BTW, Yes I did learn to use the search function after being asked politely to do so.
I guess this can't be posted enough:

well heres my $0.02. I dont know where you live but hit the swap meets, look on craigslist. spend the time fine the best deals. i bilt my holl jeep for $900. im not done but, Im doing more then just a lift "tack a look"
for tires i like this set up Super Swamper TSL Bogger for the back and tsl sx for the steers, just what Im looking to run. the boggers are good for mud, rock and sand but douse not like siding a hill thats where your tsl sx come in handy in the front. my friend runs this, he cant be stoped. the negative to these tires is the sound, but i like that.
