OK, so life got in the way of me doing this lift... I am now ready, and think I know what I want... Getting a price from Grim on this stuff..

Think this is a good start?

RC components..

Jeep TJ/XJ Front Adjustable Track Bar (1.5"-4.5") [7572]129.95
Jeep XJ Cherokee 3" Series II Suspension System [630XN2]609.95
Jeep XJ Performance 2.2 Series Steering Stabilizer [PERF87317]49.95
Jeep [5 x 4.5" Bolt Pattern] Wheel Spacers [1090]59.95 119.90

 

a good start to what? rock crawling? daily driving? scenic trails? playing in dirt?
what will you be driving on. what are your future plans

 

Good point, I left out information...

90% street/daily driver.. Have stock wheels and tire size in for the 90% time..

Have another set of stock wheels with 31's in the garage for the times it will be offload.. Nothing too major, only have a couple of parks in the area to wheel.

Dirt, rock, perhaps some mud...

 

Any other input?

 

Access to all the tools? Lift, jack stands, pb blaster, beer, someone to yell at if you skin yer knuckles?

 

I've got pretty much the same setup. Three of my leafs were broken, I ditched the front sway bar, rear wasn't even there, 32's only rub at close to full lock, so save your spacer $ for something else if you want like steelies with better backspacing. Get an alignment when you're done. Have fun.

 

Thanks for the info.. Didn't think I needed the spacers, added those in just for looks. Any negative effects if used?

How is it for on road driving without the sways? Mine are intact..

 

I have a very similar setup. Excellent start for what you are planning.

 

yeah more strain on your ball joints. it's not going to kill you but for the cost of a good set of spacers you're better off getting a set of steelies instead
ditch the rear sway bar. it's useless. the front one is more vital but it's up to you. just keep it and get some disconnects later if you feel you need it

 

I was looking at the disconnects on RC site, but they show them being for higher lifts, if I'm only doing a 3" lift which ones should I use?
