Should I go 4.5 inch, or 3 inch? I would get either one from zone. The 4.5 lift is about 200 more but comes with swaybars, lower control arms, shackles, all bushings, tcase drop, maybe some other stuff. I would most likely run 31s on either kit. I plan on going taking it to Rausch next year. I also thought about just getting the 3 inch, and adding some spacers and shackles later on. What do you guys think? Also, if anyone has pics of a 4.5 with 31's I'd like to see it. Thanks

 

I run a rubicon express 4.5" with 31"x10.50" bfg's.

 

Do it once do it right i would go 4.5 now cause i went three inch at first and now im going 4.5

 

Yea that's kinda what I thought.

 

Nice XJ dude!!! I like that combo!

 

what other components were upgraded with this lift

 

Thanks, it took me a while to get it to this point.

 

I got the short arm lift so: upper and lower control arms, 4.5" coils, adjustable track bar, swaybar discos, stainless braided brake hoses, front bumpstop extensions, t-c drop kit, 3.5" full leaf packs, 1.25" shackles, and the combo i got had doesch tech shocks but their kits don't normally come with shocks.

 

I was at 4.5 with 31's. It was an 3.5 RE kit with 1 inch spacers and shackels It looked good and I liked it. And there was also enough room to go to a bigger tire, which I did.

 

Cool man, I'm diggin your jeep. Thanks for the pic

 

Hey, my kit doesn't come with upper control arms, and it doesn't come with an adjustable track bar, are those necessary? Thanks

 

The control arms are not completely necessary. Some people will drill a new mounting hole for the stock track bar, but I don't like that idea. So if you can afford it, i would.

 

here is 4.5 with 32x11.5

 

here is 4.5 with 32x11.5

 

Will the lift not work without redrilling or new track bar? Like if I just left it where it was?
