Am I missing anything from my pieced together lift?
My leafs are shot on my 87 XJ, so I am going to replace them and lift my Jeep. I am going for a 2" lift for now, but giving myself the option so I can add another 2 down the line if I want to.
Here is what I am looking to put together for my lift:
Old Man Emu 2" Light Load Leaf Spring x2
Teraflex 2in Coil Spacers x2
New U Bolts
Leaf spring bushings
Is there anything that I am missing for the lift?
Thanks

Other than shocks/bar-pin eliminators, will this work for a decent start to a bigger lift? I only want to go 2" right now, but I figure I can add 2" lifts springs with the spacers in the front and shackles in the back to make it 4" down the line.

you wont be able to add another 2" up front via another coil spacer, youll havta upgrade to bigger coils and use your current spacers. rear just get 2" adjustable shackles from RC only like $60 bucks, besides that like stated shocks and maybe look into a adj track bar
