1.5" lift questions
I'm wanting to give my '91 XJ 1.5" of budget lift...
Question 1 :I read here that Camaro spring isolators will give you 1.5" in the front - but what year Camaro do these need to come from? And if I bought them new would they be any cheaper than just buying ones specifically for an XJ?
Question 2: I have an extra set of XJ rear springs, wondering if it's possible to make a bastard pack out of these that will give me 1.5"? Has anyone done this?
Question 3: Will I need to lower my transfer case with just 1.5"?

There is a junk yard lift thread; you will find plenty of ideas there. You shouldn't need a tcase drop and you can get coil spacers for $30-40. So prob cheaper in the jy
