Ok..If anything starts acting up ill know

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.

Lifting a buddies 2000 wj 2" f/r budget boost. Now my cherokee cleared 245 75 16s with a budget boost. Will his grand cherokee clear. He will only street drive his rig. I only trimmed small amount off front bumper end caps on my xj. Anyone done this tire/lift combo on a wj.

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 ?

No. And why would you want to?

loyaltyXJ96

I want to go to 6.5in lift eventually

bhennessee1

But why do you want to use an add a leaf instead of a shackle?

loyaltyXJ96

Kinda wanted to use both and get to 8

bhennessee1

Not gonna happen, you can't put an aal in a lift pack. Te 4.5 inch packs already have more arch than the 2 inch add a leaf. And there is absolutely no reason to lift an xj 8 inches.

loyaltyXJ96

Okay thanks ill just stick to the 6.5in

Just curious, what's the longest shackle that would be safe to use? The GM shackles are 4.5" and gave me .75" lift.

bhennessee1

I don't know.
