Default which lift

Hello to all. I just purchase a 96 cherokee and looking to lift it and i was wondering which lift would be best. I am looking at putting it up on 33s for time being while i save some money to build axles and then i would like to put some 35s under it. i was thinking either the 5.5 re long arm lift or the 6 inch skyjacker lift. Any ideas opinion or anything that could point me in a better direction. thank you

If this is going to be a DD, I would advise against that high of a lift, but the choice is yours.

What's the point of drifting and doing doughnuts? I see people doing them or see people on Youtube doing them, and I ask myself, what the hell is the point? Quite frankly, in my opinion, it's kinda retarded. Just my opinion don't flame me.


Edit: To stay on topic, I would say get a 4.5" lift as it can fit 33's and if you ever want to get 35's you could just add more lift or just do some major trimming.
