If you want to lift your jeep on the cheep try this link: http://www.rocklizardfabrications.co...dget_boost.htm
This is how I lifted my jeep and it was pretty easy. Wood has no place under your jeep unless your driving over it.

Wood..? Seriously!? Wtf, For the love of everything green and good, you better just go do some reading about blocks and suspension before you add another post.

I'll just be nice and leave it at that.
