I am looking for a picture of an xj with a specific lift and tire combo. its rusty's full spring pack with an extra 1" lift blocks in the rear, with BFG KM2s that are 33x12.5x15. I have looked at myjeepxj or whatever that site is. I have also looked at the lift/tire thread. they are not specific enough. I need to see exactly what areas will need to be trimmed when I turn and so forth. my Wheels will be cragar soft 8s that are 15x8 with 4"BS. please help if you can and no comments from the peanut gallery.

You won't get much help like this. And your better off without the blocks and getting leafs with the lift amount you want.

So, you want to make a bad decision but you don't want anyone to tell you that you're making a bad decision?

Rusty's makes multiple size lifts.

1. Stay away from blocks at all costs.

2. Find a picture of ANY Jeep that has that size lift. Springs are going to vary anyway. There's no SET amount that you have to cut.

3. Just install the lift and cut the **** that's in the way.

4. Don't buy that lift.

Seriously op you might want to tell us what size of Rusty's full leafs you're looking at.

Shoot I'm waiting for Roninafako to show up.

All the moderators are great. One of best and most well moderated forums I have been on is this one.

Thank you for the compliments, it's nice to hear that. We try really hard to keep things sane around here.

OP

You'll get more flies with honey than vinegar. Just saying

Haha! Love the change!

I can get very close showing a Rustys full 3" leaf/coil lift with 1 1/2" Boomerang Shackles and ACOS spacers on the coils for a total of 4 1/2" of lift. In the Photo I'm running 33x12:50x15's on Cragar soft Eights 15x8 with 3.75" of BS.


As shown I can get full flex off road and can fit my 35" set of tires also.

Alright now that we've had a good laugh, OP I hope you got a laugh too in good fun. Now as others have suggested, get the leafs you need with the lift you want, blocks do not hold up well on our rigs. If you are set on that extra inch, use shackles or a shackle relocation box instead.
As for lift height, all manufacturers give +/- of actual advertised height. IE: Rubicon Express will give about an inch more than they say. So its really a hit or miss on exactly like a photo.

The lift has been installed for over two years and I have wheeled the mess out of it, no problems. I am going from 30x9.5x15 KM2s to 33x12.5x15 KM2s... and sorry for my title, I just didn't want the standard sarcastic response of "why didn't you use the search bar"... But I want to see how much issues I will have as far as fitting them. try to cut before I take it to discount.

You really shouldn't do that. Maybe just a little but you really won't know until the tires are on. Set the jeep on some jack stands while you take the wheels to get swapped.
