So im looking at getting the rough country Jeep XJ 4.5" Suspension Kit w/Rear Springs [633N2] and adding the Performance 2.2 Series Steering Stabilizer along with the kit. And for 800.85 i can have that kit shipped to myself. Than i was gonna plan on getting RE Steel brake hose set but what size would i need?

Rough country's Lift i Might be getting

Anything else i would need?

 

Slip yoke eliminator and cv drive shaft are recommended. And an allignment unless you do it yourself.

 

What does the SYE exactly do? Thanks

 

Eliminates the slip yoke on the rear drive shaft.

Allows for a longer drive shaft.

You should probably do a lot more research before you pull the trigger on any lift kit.

 

What should i Look into?

 

It all depends on your tastes and what you plan on doing with your rig.

 

It will be a DD considering i still need to go to school and work but i would like it to get around on trails in mud on rocks

 

Look into the "Hack and Tap".

 

So i deccided i made up my mind and i will be getting the rough country Jeep XJ Cherokee 4.5" Suspension for 829.95. Than once I get more money i will be ordering the SYE w/ the rear extended driveshaft along with the 2.2 performance RC Steering stabilizer. Only 16 and am wondering if im heading in the right direction

 

Do you have any recovery options

 

Like recovery Gear? That will come later as of now i am only worrying about lift and tires

 

asking if you have a front bumper with some d rings on it or a rear receiver hitch? if not then might want to invest in that kinda stuff first especially if go wheeling eventually you will get stuck and have to get pulled out or up something

 

Trailer hitch in the back and I got tow hooks in the front for like $5 at the junk yard. And you get to keep stock bumpers.

 

Yea im not going to be doing heavy wheeling when i get my lift i will be getting front and rear bumpers with d-rings and tow hitch will also subframe when i get those on

 

It is possible to go without an SYE on a4.5 inch lift. All you may need is a tcase drop, but it's different for everyone.
