So I was thinking...
I have a few questions about the 4.0L ZJ/Lifted ZJ owners.
1.(lifted question) If I just use 2' Coil spring spacers will I need to upgrade my the parts in my front end? So I won't have the death wobble or will a 2' not give me the death wobble? I don't want to go big cause of the issues it will create as my ZJ is going to be my DD.
2. (4.0L ZJ question) I was planning on tearing apart some of the stuff on my engine to clean it up and maybe paint it. Would you guys like a walk through on how to do it? I bought a camera but haven't gotten to take any pictures with it. So I can take step by step pictures of what I'm doing.

Thanks for your reply! I plan on only going in a little bit, cause my pockets are full of pocket lint right now so I'm not going in where i have to replace gaskets and what nots so.

You won't need longer shocks with a 2" spacer lift if you don't go off road much. You should have the front end aligned after lifting, that will help keep the death wobble away. Be very careful when cleaning the engine, water on the wrong parts can lead to major headaches.
