i guess any lift will do for the desert just as long you get more clearence for so you dont bottom out, and get WIDE tires!

best thing for you to do is do a ton of reading on forums like NAXJA and Jeepspeed.com and maybe race-dezert.com for starters.

The highest lift that Jeepseeder's run normally is 5.5-6.5" and the tires are either 33x10.50 or 35x10.50. You can find more info on the sites i listed above.
