After searching around and reading in to lift kits, I finally decided to buy a 3.5" RE Super-Ride (Full Leafs, not AAL). I found it for $500 with free shipping. Pretty damn good price from what I have been seeing. Now I'm in the search of getting some shocks. I look around and I see the shocks are labeled as being for 2-3 inches of lift, and then i see others that say 4 inches of lift. What size shocks should I be looking at? I dont want to get a shock that is too small or long, and to be honest I'm not exactly too savvy when it comes to this.. HELP!!

Thanks all.

Currently I'm looking at these shocks, Bilstein 5100.

But I'm always open for suggestions!

If anyone also has any suggestions as far as quick-disconnects, transfer case drops, etc. Please do tell.

 

Thank you sir, I've heard that they make a good quality cheap lift

 

I have just bought a jeep with a 3.5 lift and 1.5 spacers. It has stock LCA and UCA whats lift size CA's would i need too get and anyone recommend a brand? I was thinking the rustys adjustable with flex joints.

 

either will be fine, mine is setting on stock shocks with a 3 inch lift. rides exactly the same, but i dont do any flexing so uptravel and downtravel mean nothing to me

 

i would be doing minimal flexing, so if I went with the 4" shock you think i'd be fine, because i want to put on a 3/4"-1" shackle/coil spacer lift as well.

 

Off road mostly

 

can i put 30" tires on 16x8 AR767???? what would that size be?

 

I have a 94 XJ with an RE 3.5" full leaf kit that gave me 4.5" of lift.. I want to put on 33" tires. What size wheels should I use with what BS. Also what width 33s should I get. This is a daily driver only. I would like them to fit without any or very little trimming. Thanks

 

Hello all,
First off, I have been reading until my eyes are hurting.... I am sure the question has been asked so please go easy on me for this post. I bought my son a 2001 XJ and we want to lift it and re-tire it, with that said are there any 4" kits available that won't require fabrication? I am mechanical and have wrenched in my years but I am looking for a bolt on kit. Any help would be nice.

Thanks, Don

 

yes, i think that would work very well

 

Most of the long arms require fab work, but as far as short arms 99% of the the ones you can order are all bolt on. You might have some trouble getting bolts out but thats it

 

yes 245/75/16 is about 30.5"

do a 15x8 wheel with 4" BS..for a DD and 33s..33x10.5 would probably be your best bet..but they do look smaller than a 12.5" wide tire IMO

yes 4" shocks are perfect. i run 6.5-9" shocks on mine with a 6" lift and i get all the downtravel i could ever need also thanks to long arms. same shocks as in my avatar and thats not even full droop

most kits are 100% bolt on. as stated, just getting the bolts out and lining up the axle with the new control arms is the hardest part.

 

whats a kind of tire size am i looking for with a 32 inch tire, i have 15 inch rims butnot understanding the metric conversion to the p number. i was looking at bf goodrich 32x11.5r15. some people are telling me these are a odd sized tire. please help
