Thanks for the info Im gonna try and do these tommorow

 

Looking for a reasonable lift for my DD. Which one would you choose? A kit that was meant to work together, or something you pieced together?

Rough country 3" lift - http://roughcountry.com/jeep_xj_3.html

OR

Rubicon express add a leaf
Any aftermarket 3" lift coil
and Rancho RSX17000 Shocks (found them for 20 dollars a piece)

Am I going to notice any difference that's worth the hassle?

 

paying shipping once is usually cheaper than piecing together a kit, at least for a 3 inch lift

 

Heeeeeelp!!!
I just worked and finished a budget boost on my jeep, and I have 3" spacers on the front coils and 3" blocks under my leafs in the rear. But my question is on shocks, what other make/model longer shocks can fit on the 88 cherokee pioneer?? My stock shocks are over extended/topped out!
Fellow forum jeepers, Any help, pointers, advice is appreciated!!....I've have looked at suspension cites online but im short on cash! Hopeing I can't buy plain jane shocks at my local parts store, till I can get the money to do my xj's suspension justice. Ps I measured what I need on extension and its shocks longer then 21" fully extended. Thanks for reading!

 

Buy some cheep hydros for a three inch lift, skyjackers are like 40 dollars each, there are jk shocks that will work I think somebody a lot more experienced than me should chime in soon.

 

Thanks guy! and yeah I've seen those but when I do go for the skyjackers I want the top dogs. Right now though I need the real cheap to get my dd going for a couple weeks. I remember last year I bought some $35 a pair shocks but can't recall the the make or model they were??

 

JK Wrangler shocks can be used for a 3" lift. Rubicon shocks are stiffer than standard.

 

What year jk? Is that for both front and rear?

 

I have an 88 pioneer. Did the jy lift with s-10 bastard packs in rear and spacers up front , bought the BDS shocks. Inexpensive and work GREAT.

 

Hey I private messaged Jason like three days ago. Any advice?

 

Call him.

 

From bds.suspension.com??

 

Actually bought em local from a shop in Tulsa.

 

Oh really, that's sweet. I just looked em up online and there about $50 a piece. Idk if a shop around tri-cities has them. How much did you spend on em?

 

Ok, I need someone who knows what they're talking about. I have installed my springs and new brake lines for my '92 base model. I need advice on what to do with my jeep for the drive shaft now. It won't allow me to go more than 5mph w/out shaking horribly. Anyone have any ideas on what to do or somewhere it can be taken to get it up and running???? It's my dd so I really need it running again..
