i have a 2001 xj stock.
this is more for look, any off road is very light.
i want to get a 3" lift.
I dont want to mess with t case drops, and relocating brake lines or trimming fenders.
I will spend for better shocks and prefer to just do a new leaf packs on back rather than hassle with add a leaf.
can someone suggest a kit or do i need to put it together individually. I have looked at rustys and rough country but it gets confusing.
last part is what wheel and tire size will fit and not cause rub or death wobble?
right now i have stock 16 rims.
I am not even sure about trying this myself. Too afraid of problems with those uni body bolts breaking off. my jeeps looks nice outside but its got some rust underneath and most of those bolts look bad.
I think i may take it to a shop. what is a fair install price for something like this from a shop?
Thanks for the help guys.

Do u guys happen to know how much of a total lift the 4.5" RE superflex lift will give front and back? I know it wont run at 4.5"s so im curious since its on sale right now. Plus its short arms which kinda sucks gor bein over 4.5.

Question I have a 4.5in lift and I was wondering if I could use the 2" lift with add a leaf and coil spacers to go to get 6.5in lift rather then using drop shackles ?
