Wanting a 3in so I can put my 31x10.50 on my jeep. Do I need 3in of lift or can I get by with 2in lift. I m cheap due to funds. Ive been hearing of a bastard pack lift. But how to get exactly the lift I want. Any advice plus I dont want to do a sye and adjustable tb etc.

Your only cost could be tires. Don't need a lift if you don't mind having no flex and cutting the fenders.

Dont want to cut my fenders. I been looking at the s10 leafs. My stock ones now are starting to sag so if I use my main and a few of the s10 leafs I should get a 3in lift. Or other people said add leafs from another xj pack. And get grand Cherokee v8 coils for the front for 3in of lift and shocks from a gc. Im jyst wondering if anyone tried this....

I have 31s on my cherokee, had minor rubbing at stock height so I lifted the front two inches and will be lifting the rear using an s10/xj bastard pack.

ZJ V8 coils if they are brand new will give you almost an inch of lift, almost.
