Default Mods?

I'm looking to do some basic modifications to my cherokee and am looking for any ideas. Kind of low budget but any ideas would be appreciated. I have an after market stereo speakers and sub already.

2" budget boost.

Get some $35 "Chevy Lowering Shakles" from any auto parts store.

Get a pair of poly coil spacers, new or used, doesn't matter much. Those can be had for $50 or less.

Install time may be a day depending on tools, condition of bolts, and skill. But its easy stuff.

So the budget boost does the front end? And the shackles will lift the back?

I'm in the process of prepping my rims for paint, and then if I have some spare paint and time Ima try and do my quarter panels and part of my hood.
