97 Lift kit ?????????
Hey hows it going, i have a rusty off road 6.5 lift and i have 2'' coil spacers i wanna put on the front to clear even bigger tires, does anyone no if using the pitman arm drop from the 6.5'' lift would work or would i need to get a larger drop and would my track bar be on to great of an angle or do i need to get a track bar drop bracket. if anyone has done this set up it would be greatly appreciated thankyou.

Im kinda in the same boat as you, same lift too. Thing is my track bar isnt too straight with the drag link. Here is my set up.
I have to figure something out as well. I bought it like this, and Im unsure on what size pitman was used.

thats the stock drag link bar but i dont think thats the adjustable track bar, they should be on the same angle, is that from the 2'' spacers you got or just the wrong drop bracket, thats what im affraid of

How much bigger than 35" you planning???? Lifting isn't what I'd be concernd with. Its the axles. Basically the answer is maybe. 2" is not really that much when you are already at 6.5. It is also high enough for just about any tire I can Imagine going on a XJ.

I plan on running 37's, I have upgraded axles and about to swap my front with a Dana 44 I'm just concerned about the angle of my drag link and if I need a drop bracket for my track bar cuz of the coil spacers

Hey man how do you like those leafs you have from Rusty's? I can't decide whether to go with them, or just do the 6.5 long arm kit from RC.
