Looking to add about 1-1.5" of lift to my existing 4.5" RC longarm on my 99xj. I bought a set of ACOS, for my front so I can eventually get around 7" total and tuck 35s nicely. But the acos have a minimum of 1.5" I believe, so I want to add about 1.5" to the rear to level out. What would be better, shackle relocation to add height, or boomerangle shackles, extended shackles to get the 1.5"? Thanks

Are you currently running a 4.5" leaf pack then with the stock shackles? To really get the best of both worlds I would run a shackle relocation kit, which on average will add about .75" of lift http://froehlichsuspension.3dcartsto...-Kit_p_13.html AND an extended shackle that adds .75 or 1" lift.
