3" to 4.5" Lift Questions
Hello All,
I curretly have a 3" Rough Country Lift (Springs & Add a Leaf) on my 92 2WD 5spd XJ. I want to go 4.5" and give it a PreRunner Look. I have Rusty's 1" drop pitman arm & Adjustable track bar installed. Also just scored on some Hanneman front fenders.
What will I need to achieve 4.5"?? I was thinking of getting 1.5 spacer for the front and either shackles or block for the rear. Which is better shackle or block?? Will I need both lower and upper control arms? If so, which are better adjustable or fixed?? I know I will need newer and longer brake lines. Can I use the Rough Country shocks that with my 3" lift kit??
Any help, links or Pics would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!!

Sweet! Thanks for the help guys! Can I reuse my shocks for the time being? I won't be hitting the trails anytime soon.

If that isn't the case, you'll need new shocks.
