So if i do a 3" lift do i need to modify the track bar or sway bar or the pitman arm or is it just like the 2" lift is and can get away with the stock components and just get new shocks?

 

Shocks
Track bar
Sway bar links
Front brake line relocation is advised

 

Alrighty thanks

 

im doing an add a leaf and coil spacers lift to my truck this weekend, got the lift used and didnt come with ubolts,the lift is only 2'' does anyone know what size u bolts i should use? my front axle is a dana 30 rear is dana 35.

 

2 3/4 inch wide u bolts, about as long as the stock ones. You want 2 3/4 between the sides of the u bolts. They should have some at advance auto parts, or auto zone.

 

Make sure they're round. Not square. And don't reuse them.

 

thanks guys i owe you one, im also replacing rear shocks and dont know what i should do to replace the mounts could anyone help with that? i know they break and its a pain to replace i saw a guy replacing it with store bought hardware, anyone have and easier way or a better way to go about making new rear upper shock mounts?

 

Round not square? I think you are loosing faith in humanity.

 

It's super easy. Just punch the old ones out with a 2 pound hammer and a punch, an fish the new bolts through. I need to find a video for you.

 

What do you mean? Some setups use square U-bolts. Go look at the shelf at Advance.

 

I know, but on an xj, I guess if you have never looked under one you could make that mistake but I hope nobody would.

 

I didn't know the first time. Just trying to help

 

im thinkin 9in long 2 3/4 wide an 3/8in thick for the ubolts. a friend of mine makes custom ones same price as advanced auto so i figure why not

 

Ok guys need to get some tires and not looking to spend a arm and a leg whats some good tires for the price I am looking at the general grabber reds I can get them for $817 out the door

 

Can I fit 35s on a 4.5 inch lift without doing a lot of trimming?
