promise you its not. the fenders are trimmed so it looks alot higher than it actually is, but the lift height and tire proportion matches mine almost to a T. I'm running 3" with 31s with the same trimming and it looks exactly like that.

 

Hi there, after reading up to 30 pages, I'm still in dilemma..

Im planning on getting the RE 4.5 Superflex lifts with 33" tire, do I need to get these following items?

1. Longer shocks or stock shocks will do?
2. 6 degree shims

3. Transfer Case Lowering Kit


Your advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

 

You will definetly need the new shocks. With the RE kit you get new control arms and such. You can get some bilsteins from shock warehouse.com for less than the RE shocks. Look into that. You will probably need a SYE, but the Tcase drop kit might work until you get the sye (you should really do it right the first time and save yourself the trouble). You might not need it though. Some XJ's just dont get vibes at that height, but then some get vibes at 3". As far as the shims go that depends on your rig as well.

 

According to a post at JF, they are 33x12.5-15, but I would love to know the lift size.

 

It may be 33's on 3" lift, Look at the pumpkin clearance. Thats a bit up there. But like it was posted before, noone can really tell without measuring....

 

Thanks for the advice..

By the way, does anyone knows where I can purchase Rough Country that can send to worldwide?

 

Hi guys,

Which one is better for daily drive with 4.5 RE kit?

BILSTEIN 5100 Series Gas Shock
or
Rubicon Express Mono-Tube Shock Kit

 

Easy choice, the Bilstein...but its going to be more expensive than the Rubicon

 

it is about the same price = $320

 

i have a 3.5 lift on my 89' cherokee,but my front end is sagging alittle more than the rear.what can i do to get it level again?

 

im thinking about getting RC 4.5kitand adding 1"spacers to the front and shackles on the back. What size tires would be better 33s or 32s? Im mainly using my jeep for light mudding and alot of trail riding and flexing.

 

ok............ do you have a question? this ^ was a statement

 

get a 1" spacer

 

If you can. Find out how much it's sagging. Spacer will work, but will ride a little diff then a fresh pair of springs. There's also a coil over setup that you can do. Adds a marginal amount of spring rate and they cost $. But they are adjustable.
I'd honestly say get a fresh pair of springs. It's really not all that expensive. You'll have to lift the jeep up to do the work to get a spacer in there anyhow.
just my 2 cents.

 

Are skyjacker lift kits good?
I'm looking at one with a 3 inch skyjacker lift
