Get a 2" shackle for the rear and a 1.75 coil spacer for the front. Cheap and very easy to do

if you have a welder you can build your front coil spacer to any height you want(within reason) for around $10

http://www.madxj.com/MADXJ/technical...oilSpacers.htm

I actually make these for people... I have made them up to 4.5" but I don;t know why people insist

they are MUCH stronger than the POLY spacers

I get between $30-$65 per pair, shipped to your door (price depends on the size you order...)

here is my most recent set... 1.75" on top of Rough Country 3" coils...

BEFORE


DURING INSTALL (all you do is take out your springs and remove the rubber spring isolator, once that isolator is removed you install the coil spring spacer and reinstall the rubber isolator... then reinstall your coil spring... finally shim your lower control arms to get the proper wheel base and redrill your trackbar so the that the axle is centered


AFTER!!!



I would buy a Superior Automotive 13-4100 "Chevy lowering shackle" as they call it... it will give you around 1.5" of lift on a stock leaf setup assuming proper shackle angle... if your angle is vertical it would give you 2.6" on the nose

it is very well made, and only $35, it can be found at autozone, advance auto parts and o'reilly auto parts

I have 30x9.50x15 bfg all terrains on a 100% stock 2001 cherokee sport. drives fine no rubbing. i'd like to put a 2" lift on it tho. the tires look crammed in the wheel well right now.

yup. just bought one tonight. its a 2" spacer that goes under your coil spring in front and a leaf that goes onto your existing leaf springs in the rear for an overall 2" lift. the one i got was on ebay for $100.
