Yea i was definatly gonna ditch my stock leafs, they are shot

 

4.5" rc coils in the front and 2" shackles added to a 3" lift in the rear also got the x series. Only thing they forgot was parts for the discos. Also sitting on 30x9.50 tires and trimmed fenders

 

Sick jeep man! Thats exactly the height i want from mine! So you put the 2" shackles on the 3" leafs?

 

Yeah. Ive got all my tools and what not in there so figured would just go a little higher so it would balance out that's why went with a 2" shackle instead of a1.5"

 

I did a RC 3" lift kit (used at the junk yard for $70), they recently upgraded to a little over 4.5" which included

3" coil front, with a HOMEMADE 1.75" metal coil spacer(cost about $10 a pair)

3" rear leaf spring, with an RC 1.5" shackle (used at the junk yard for $6) with homemade shackle relocation boxes!!!

ended up with this

 

thats looks pretty good, like the home made flares. what size tires you running

 

Cool jeep dude. I have a question though. Is the rear loaded with stuff? The rear looks like it's sagged to me a little bit. (no offense) This is why I keep telling people you don't get the lift you think you do by adding rear shackles. I've gone this route before and you just don't net the lift you would with the correct height leaf springs. I will admit they do flex nicer though the way you have it set up.

 

Oh I've got a lot of crap in the back right now. Didn't get a chance to really put them away since the gf came over. Just tossed everything in the back lol. Going to take me a few hours to get everything back the way it was and take a bunch of stuff out not needed to the trail. Like a floor jack and jack stands for example

 

Ah ok gotcha.
Yeah, you must attend to the gf or there will be hell to pay. Atleast that's how it was in my situation.

 

We work opposite schedules which is good and bad at the same time. But each have Sunday's free. So when it's time to hangout it's time to hangout lol
